Your child, drawn in.

Send one photo. We draw them as a character — and they become the hero of the bedtime storybook.

A child and the same child drawn as a character, pointing at each other
Not just them

Everyone who belongs in the story.

Their sister. Their best friend. The dog. Grandma.

The child, drawn into a prehistoric valley
The child, at the river that has to be crossed.
How it works

Three steps, once.

1Send a photo

One photo of your child. No forms, no character builder to fight with.

A photograph of a child

2We draw them

A few minutes later there is a character, drawn to sit inside the artwork rather than pasted on top.

3Pick a story

Your child is in it, same face on every page. Read together on a phone or tablet.

We keep the drawing.
Not the photo.

Your photo is deleted within 24 hours. What stays is the character we drew from it — and that is all we ever need again.

Every book after the first one uses that same drawing, so it is the same child on every page, in every story.

The shelf so far

Two worlds drawn.
More on the way.

A prehistoric valley with a child and several dinosaurs
A valley that has not been quiet in a hundred million years.
A strange planet under two moons
A long way up, past the last moon anybody bothered to name.
And then
A child in the valley, drawn at about four years old
At four
They won't stay four.

Send a new photo whenever they have changed. We draw them again, a little older, and the stories carry on.

Five years later
The same scene, the same child, drawn at about nine years old
At nine
Read at bedtime, for as long as they'll let you.

That is what we are building toward. We are not there yet — the first books are still being drawn.
