Can the book tell our family's specific adoption story?

Yes — that's what makes these books most valuable. We work from the details you give us: the country, the moment of arrival, how you told siblings, the first night. The book is only about your family.

Can the characters look like our family?

Yes — we build the characters from reference photos. Transracial adoption, sibling groups, single-parent families — all illustrated honestly.

At what age should a child receive this book?

Most families give the book at 2-5 years old, when children begin asking questions. But we make books for teenagers working through later questions too.

Can the book acknowledge the complexity — the birth family, the loss?

Yes — we write adoption books that don't pretend the story is only simple. Children's books can hold complexity. We write with care and honesty.

Is it halal-friendly for Muslim families?

Yes — we understand the Islamic legal distinction between kafala and adoption and can write books appropriate for Muslim families navigating both.

N° 01Your story, not a template

The specific moment, the specific family

Generic adoption books say 'you were chosen'. Your adoption book says: the day we flew to Addis Ababa, the first morning you woke up in your room, what your brother said when he first saw you. The specificity is what makes it real for the child who reads it.

Characters from reference photos

Every family member built from photos — the adopted child, siblings, parents. Transracial adoption represented honestly.

Holds the complexity

We write books that can acknowledge the birth family, the loss, and the love — without it being either simple or traumatic.

For Muslim families

We understand kafala and the Islamic framework around family. We write appropriately for Muslim adopting families.

N° 02When it's needed

For the first questions and every question after

Most families give the book when the child begins asking where they came from — typically 2-5 years old. But the book grows with the child. We write at a level that a 3-year-old can sit with and a 10-year-old can find more meaning in.
