Other questions
- What exactly do I get?
- A printed hardcover book (A5) with personal, illustrated stories written specially for one child, delivered to your door.More about how it works
- How long is a story?
- It depends on your child's age. For the youngest children each story is just a few minutes and a book holds several of them; for older children each story is longer, up to fifteen minutes or more. The reading time and way of reading grow with the child's age: being read to, reading together or reading independently.
- Isn't a story made with AI impersonal?
- The other way round: every story is built around your child, with their age, the theme that's on their mind right now and their name. No stock story with a name pasted in.How we use AI
- Will my child recognise themselves in the book?
- That's the idea. Your child is the main character of the story and of the illustrations, recognisable throughout the whole book. You choose what the main character looks like, no photo needed.How your child appears in the book
- Can we keep rereading the book?
- Yes, the book is yours. As often as the child wants. And the stories stay in your account to reread anytime.
