A gift for the family

A gift for your grandchild: a storybook starring them

A hardcover picture book where they are the hero, made from one photo, with a dedication from you on the first page.

Have a good photo? Make the book yourself and see it free first. Don't have one? Buy it as a gift, and the parent adds the photo with a gift code.

$49 hardcover · free US shipping · digital copy included

Two storybooks, one for each grandchild, on a kitchen table — Example image of the book, not a photograph. The people shown are not real.

Two ways to give it

With a photo: make the free preview, then order the hardcover. We ship it to you or straight to the family.
Without a photo: choose the story and pay $49 (free US shipping), and tell us where to ship it. Send the parent the gift code we give you. They add one photo, see the book and approve it, and we print it and ship it. Unused gift codes are refunded on request.

For Christmas, order by December 7; with a gift code, the parent needs to add the photo and approve the book by then.

For the grandchild who has everything

Something they don't already have: a picture book where they are the hero, with their face in every scene and their name in the story.

What you get

An 8 × 8 inch hardcover picture book, 24 pages, printed in the USA.
Their face in every scene, drawn from one photo, and their name in the story.
A dedication in your own words on the first page, or our line, like “For Mia, with all our love, Nana & Papa.”
A digital copy to read together the same day.
$49 with free US shipping. Each extra grandchild's book in the same order is $29 more.
The story calls them she, he, or just their name.

How it works

Choose one photo and tap what they love.
In about 30 seconds you see them drawn as the hero, and in a minute or two the cover and the first pages. The preview is free.
Love it? Order the hardcover. We paint the rest of the pages, print the book in the USA and ship it free in the US. Printing usually takes 2 to 5 business days, then usually 3 to 5 days in the mail.

An example story page with the text — Pages 2 and 3 of an example book, exactly as they are printed. Mia is a made-up child.

The matching example picture page — Pages 2 and 3 of an example book, exactly as they are printed. Mia is a made-up child.

Questions

Is the photo kept?

No. We use the photo once to draw them as a storybook character. We don't store it, and it's never used to train AI, by us or by our platform.

Is it made with AI?

Yes. The pictures are painted with AI image tools from the photo you choose, and each one is checked automatically before it's used. The seven stories were written and edited with AI to read well aloud; your grandchild's name goes in spelled as you typed it, and the things they love are the ones you pick. The words are typeset like any printed book, never drawn by the image AI, so every word is spelled right.

When will it arrive?

Printing usually takes 2 to 5 business days, then usually 3 to 5 days in the mail. For Christmas, order by December 7.
