Frequently asked questions

You upload a photo of your child, choose a tale (or write your own idea), and we write and illustrate a picture book with your child as the hero on every page.

Two or three clear, front-facing photos. Faces should be well lit and not hidden by hats or sunglasses. JPG, PNG, WebP and HEIC are all fine.

They are used only to illustrate your book. They stay on our own server for as long as the book is kept, then they are deleted. We do not sell them, and we do not use them to train any model.

A few minutes. Every page is illustrated individually, so a longer book takes a little longer. You can leave the page open — if you come back, we pick up where we left off.

Yes. Any finished book can be ordered as a printed keepsake. Printing is priced per page, and you can order several copies at once for grandparents, classrooms or birthdays.

Classic tales children already know by name — Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk and more — or a story you write yourself. You can also use a story another reader has published.

Yes. An account is how we keep your books, and new accounts receive free credits toward a first book.

Credits are how a book is paid for. Longer books and some models cost more. You can buy more at any time, and some actions — an approved story, a friend joining with your link — earn credits too.

The story itself can be written in English or Turkish, whichever you pick on the form. The website follows the store you are on.
