Make a personalized bedtime story book starring your child
The best bedtime stories are the ones where your child is the hero. Here is how to make one that looks like them on every page, in an evening, with a story you write together.
Your child, drawn once
Start from a photo, or describe them. Either way they become an illustrated character who looks the same on every page.
Write it together, one page at a time
Ask your child what happens next. Each answer becomes a page: say it in one sentence and the page is painted.
Back home, asleep
Bedtime stories end in bed. A new outfit, pyjamas, is one sentence and keeps the same face.
- Read it on screen tonight, page by page, with the story text
- Or print it as a paperback through Amazon KDP, with a front and back cover
- A gift that is actually about them, for birthdays, grandparents or a new sibling
Starting from a photo? Read how a photo becomes a character.
Frequently asked
How long does it take to make a personalized bedtime story?
An evening. The character takes a minute or two, and each page takes about a minute after you describe it.
Do I need to be good at writing prompts?
No. You describe each page in a normal sentence. There is no prompt engineering.
Can I print the book?
Yes. Export the interior PDF and the cover wrap and order a paperback through Amazon KDP.
