Your Idea, Made Into a Book: Custom Story Book
Tell us about your book
Fields marked * are required. The more you tell us, the more personal your book will be.
We use photos only as a guide for drawing your characters. You can also email more photos after you order.
Tell us your idea. We'll turn it into a real book with your name on the cover.
Pick a story theme (or bring your own idea), answer a few questions below, and add a photo if you'd like a character to look like someone special. Our team uses AI writing and illustration tools to create your story, then edits and checks every page by hand.
Choose your book:
- Picture Book (kids): up to 24 illustrated pages, perfect for ages 2 to 8.
- Story Book (chapter book or novella): about 40 to 60 pages (roughly 8,000 to 15,000 words) with an illustrated cover, for older kids, teens and adults.
Choose your art style: Realistic (looks like real people), Animated (3D movie style), Cartoon (classic storybook) or Comic book (panels and speech bubbles).
Want superheroes? Make the main character, or the whole family, into heroes with their own names, powers and costumes.
Choose your format: Digital PDF only, or PDF plus a printed paperback or hardcover shipped to your door.
