Every example is a real book we made from one photo. Read them cover to cover

1. Add one clear photo of your child, and of anyone else joining the story.
2. Pick a story and an art style, or type your own idea.
3. Read your ebook in about 30 minutes. Love it? Order it printed from your book page.

What ages is it for?: From babies (0–1) up to age 12. Each story shows the ages it is written for, and the words, length and rhythm follow the age you pick.
Will it really look like my child?: Your child is drawn once from their photo, and every page is drawn from that same drawing, so it is the same face on every page. You can redraw a picture yourself on your book page, two fresh tries a page. If you still can't recognise your child, we fix it or refund you.
Can family and pets be in it?: Yes. Your child is the star, and up to 4 family members or friends and 2 pets can join in, each from their own photo. They cost nothing extra.
How long does it take?: The ebook arrives by email in about 30 minutes. Once you have read it, you can order it printed: £20 softcover or £28 hardcover, with tracked UK delivery, in about 2 weeks.
