Their people.Their moments.Their story.

Their tales, not a template. Personalised books made from the little moments you never want to forget.

Made from Leo at two, his lion and the bath story.

The books

Four books. One little world.

Each one is built from a different part of their life. Start with the one that feels most like them.

Why Tales We Tell

They shouldn’t have to fit the story. The story should fit them.

Their people, words, favourite things, pets, places and little moments shape the story from the very first page.

The Year You Were…

A book for every year they grow.

Who they are at three won’t be who they are at five. Keep each year: the friends, the favourite things, the phrases that only lasted a summer. Build a shelf they’ll grow up with.Who they are at three won’t be who they are at five. Keep each year, and build a shelf they’ll grow up with.

How it works

More like remembering than filling in a form.

  1. About 5 minutes

    Step 1: Tell us about them

    Upload a few photos and share the little things: what they say, who they love, what goes everywhere with them.

  2. 2 working days

    Step 2: We create their book

    We draw them, their people and their world from your photos, page by page.

  3. Optional
    In your own time

    Step 3: Peek inside, if you like

    Ask for a digital preview of every page before we print.

  4. 4–6 working days

    Step 4: Printed and sent

    Printed to order and sent to you, or straight to them.

For years to come

The moment they find themselves

The first time they open it and point at their own face. Then it waits on the shelf for the day they ask what they were like.

Questions

Good to know

Anything else? Get in touch.

What do I need to get started?

A photo or two of them, and the little things you remember. The words they say, the people they love, the toy that goes everywhere. Most of it you already know by heart.

What if I can’t remember exactly how they said it?

Write it the way it sounds to you. That’s the version you’ll want to remember.

What happens to the photos I upload?

We only use your photos to make their book. They’re stored securely while we create it, then deleted 30 days after your order is delivered. We never share or sell them, and you can ask us to delete them sooner at any time.

Can I see the book before it’s printed?

Yes, if you’d like one. Choose a digital preview and nothing goes to print until you approve it.

How long will it take to arrive?

About 6–7 working days in total: 2 working days for us to create their book, then 4–5 to print and deliver it. If you choose a preview, we print once you approve it, so any changes will push delivery back a little. Delivery is free on orders over £40.

Can I send it as a gift?

Yes. Add a dedication from you, or the whole family, and we’ll print it on the first page. At checkout you can send it straight to them. We can’t include gift wrap or a separate note, so the dedication is the place for your message.
