A storybook with your child in it
Four photos from you, ten days to your door.
Buying it for someone else’s child
Their name on the cover, and in the story
It opens flat, with nothing lost in the fold
It stays open on the floor while they read
Dino Land
For the child who can name every dinosaur. They step into a valley full of them and have until dark to get a lost hatchling back to its mother.
Fifty-two pages. Seven of them have no words at all, so you get to tell those ones together.
Ages three to seven. Hardbound, 8 × 10 inches, on thick matte paper that won’t glare under a bedside lamp.
₹2,999₹4,499
After you order, you send us four photos. The illustrations are generated from them, then checked by a person, page by page, before anything is printed. Delivery is free anywhere in India.
Moonlight Zoo
For the child who is never ready for bed. After closing time the animals wake up, and your child is the only one they will talk to.
Fifty-six pages, and the tiger has opinions.
Ages three to seven. Hardbound, 8 × 10 inches, on thick matte paper that won’t glare under a bedside lamp.

What happens after you order
You send four photos
One of them head to toe, in the clothes you want them drawn in. Then three close ones: straight on and from each side. A phone by a window is plenty.
We make the pictures
The illustrations are generated from your photos, with your child in the clothes from the first one. That takes about three days.
Someone reads every page
Before anything is printed, a person goes through the whole book looking at the face and the spelling of the name. Anything that looks wrong is fixed first. That takes a day.
It is printed and sent
Printed and bound in India and at your door about a week later. Metros usually get it sooner. If it is running late, you hear it from us first.
Buying it for someone else’s child
You don’t need photos of the child to order. Pay with your own email and the confirmation carries a link for the photos. Forward it to the parents and they upload from their phone.
Put the child’s address at checkout and the book goes straight to them. The ten days start when the photos arrive, not when you pay, so for a birthday give the parents a nudge.
There is no gift wrap or gift note yet. And it won’t be a surprise for the parents, because they are the ones sending the photos.
What people ask before they order
Will it look like them?
Close enough for them to recognise, but it is a drawing and not a portrait. The illustrations are generated from your photos, then checked by a person. They follow the hair, skin tone, glasses and haircut in what you send. Clear daylight photos get the closest likeness.
Can I see it before I pay?
No. We only make a book once it is ordered, so there is nothing to show until then. What you can see is the cover and three spreads from each story at the size they print. Your child’s own book you see when it arrives.
What happens to the photos?
They are used to make your book and nothing else. We delete them thirty days after it ships and they never appear in our ads. The photo policy says so in writing.
How long does it take?
Ten days, counting from the day the photos reach us. Four to make and check the pictures, then about a week to print and ship. If it is going to be late, we tell you before you have to ask.
Which story should I pick?
Dino Land if they are into dinosaurs. Moonlight Zoo if they love animals or fight bedtime. Both are for ages three to seven and both cost the same.
