You’ll see their illustrated character before the story is made. You can try another drawing or upload a different photo before approving it. You also see every page before you pay.
You upload a clear photo of the hero and choose a story. We draw them once in that book’s house style and ask whether it looks like them. If it doesn’t, we can draw it again twice, or you can send a different photo. Only after you say yes do we illustrate the pages, into a story written by people. You read the whole book free and approve it before anything is printed.

A look inside

Here is a question worth asking first thing in the morning. Who loves Lila? The answer is long and a little surprising, and it starts before breakfast. Let's go and find out.

Nani does, to the moon and back and round the long way. Every drawing Lila ever made has been kept, even the one nobody can work out. It is on the fridge, in the middle, where the light is best.

So who loves Lila the most of all? Not the sun, not the ducks, not even the moon, though they all tried very hard. It is the one reading this book, right now. And there is a hug coming at the end of this sentence.

About this story
Who loves this child? The answer takes a whole day to find: the sun on the pillow, the ducks at the pond, the baker on the corner, the puddles, the moon on the walk home, and one very important person at the end.
The hero is drawn into all thirteen spreads, told at their reading level: 2–4, 4–6 or 6–8. Add a brother or sister, a pet, a grandparent and a parent, and each one takes a turn in the roll-call.
For printed books. Delivery time is additional.
