Personalized children's books
A studio service
A big brother book starring your child.
A 24-page picture book about becoming a big brother — written to help children process the arrival of a new sibling with excitement and pride. Your child is the hero. Their name, their look, and the new baby in the final spreads. Printed, hardbound, delivered in 2 weeks.
N° 01Why this helps
Seeing themselves as the hero of the new chapter
Children process big life changes through stories. A book where they are the protagonist — the big brother who is brave, helpful, and important — reframes the arrival of a new sibling from a disruption into an adventure. We write it to validate the older child's feelings while building genuine excitement about their new role.
01
Their feelings acknowledged
The story doesn't pretend the transition is all easy. The big brother character has feelings — we write them honestly.
02
The baby in the story
The new sibling can appear in the final spreads as someone the big brother meets, protects, and loves.
03
Their character from a photo
The big brother character looks exactly like your child — built from a reference photo.
N° 02When to order
Before the baby arrives, so you can read it together
Order during the pregnancy so you can read the book with your child in the weeks before the birth. It builds anticipation and gives the older child a story that puts them at the centre of the change. Production is 7-14 days.
