How a book gets made
Five steps, and you see the whole book before you decide to buy it.
- One
Pick the occasion
Six stories — bedtime, the first day of school, a new brother or sister, a birthday, what they want to be, and a day with a grandparent. Each is written for an age band: 2–4, 4–6 or 6–8.
- Two
Tell us who the hero is
Their name, their age, three things they love, and a photo. Up to three more people can join them — a sister, a dad, a grandmother, the dog.
- Three
Check the drawing looks like them
Before a single page is drawn we show you one picture and ask a straight question: does this look like them? If it doesn’t, we draw it again, or you send a different photo. Nothing else starts until you say yes.
- Four
Read every page
The whole book, free, before you buy anything. Change the words on any page, rewrite the dedication, title the cover, and redraw a picture you don’t like.
- Five
Approve it, and we print it
Choose hardcover, softcover, or the digital edition to read on a screen. Printed books are 20×20 cm and 30 pages, with a dedication page inside the front cover. Shipping is included on every printed book.
HOW WE ILLUSTRATE
Illustrated in our studio with the help of AI, art-directed and checked page by page by people.
The stories are written by people. Each of the six is a manuscript with its own shape and its own ending, and what changes for your child is their name, their age, the people around them and the things they love — not the plot. The pictures are drawn in one of our house styles, and every page is checked before it reaches you. Where a page doesn’t hold up, a person looks at it.
