By recipient

Personalized books for every kind of recipient

Whether it's for your child, your sister's kid, or a brand-new baby — find the perfect personalized story.

A book for the exact child you have in mind

"Who is it for?" is usually the first question when choosing a gift — and it's the fastest way to the right personalized book. Browsing by recipient means you start from the relationship (your own child, a granddaughter, a nephew, twins, a new baby) and we surface the stories that fit that child best.

Because most buyers aren't the parents

Grandparents, aunts, uncles and family friends make up the majority of personalized-book buyers. You don't need to know the child's favourite anything — just their name, age and a photo — and the book still feels made specifically for them.

Siblings and twins, handled properly

Have two children to shop for? Create a separate hero book for each so neither feels like an afterthought — many families buy one per child so every kid is the star of their own story.

Frequently asked questions

I'm not the child's parent — can I still make a book?

Yes, and most buyers aren't parents. You only need the child's name, age and one clear photo to create a book that feels deeply personal.

Can I make books for two siblings?

Absolutely — create a separate personalized book for each child so both are the hero of their own story. Many families do exactly this.

What if I don't have a good photo of the child?

You can still create a beautiful book — the story is personalized by name, age and interests, and the illustrations use the photo only if you provide one.

Is it a good gift for a new baby?

Yes — new-baby and big-sibling announcement books are among the most loved, because the story can welcome the baby or prepare an older child for the new arrival.
