The Secret Map
Shared places, favourite people and a loyal companion can become the beginning of an adventure made for them.
Read the story text
Leo and Mia found a folded map tucked beneath the old park bench where they always shared stories. With their little dog skipping ahead, they followed the dotted trail through flower paths, over a tiny bridge and towards a hidden gate. Whatever waited beyond it, they knew the adventure would be better together.
These are examples, not fixed story templates. Bring your own idea and as many characters as you want. Our custom design and book team checks and edits your original story and artwork before preparing the finished book for print.

A story they will ask for again.

Find Their StoryPERSONALISED SHOULD MEAN PERSONAL
More than changing a name.
We begin with your people, memories and imagination—not a story that was already written for somebody else.A new story, created around your details
Your answers shape the characters, world and plot from the very beginning.
- Built around real memories
- Personality and interests included
- Meaningful details shape the plot
- Reviewed and refined by a human
- Prepared for print with human care
A common template-based approach
Many personalised-book services begin with a finished template and automate the changes.
- Pre-written story
- Name swapped into a template
- Only a few personal details changed
- The same journey sold to many people
- Often sent without a personal human edit
That is the difference: you are commissioning a personal keepsake—not buying a generic story with a different name.
THE LITTLE DETAILS BECOME THE STORY
See the difference personalisation makes.
Customers do not need to write a book. They simply tell us what matters. We turn those details into character, atmosphere and meaning.
See How Personalisation Works ›“Leo went on an adventure through the forest.”
“Leo tightened the red backpack he never went anywhere without, took Troy the dragon by the paw, and followed the glowing trail towards the castle he had been drawing for months.”

Create Your Own StoryCREATED WITH TECHNOLOGY. FINISHED WITH HUMAN CARE.
Modern tools help us begin. Human judgement makes the story theirs.
We use modern creative tools to develop stories and artwork efficiently. But no finished story goes straight from a generator to print. Every book is reviewed, rewritten where needed, refined and edited by a human before production.
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Everything you need to know before creating their story.
Clear answers about the human edit, personalisation and finished physical book.Can I create my own story rather than choose an existing book?＋
Yes. The books shown here are examples to spark ideas, not fixed stories you have to buy. Choose a genre or describe your own idea, then tell us about your loved ones, the setting and what you would like to happen. We create an original story, illustrations and cover around your details.
How many characters can I include?＋
You can include as many different characters as you want: children, siblings, parents, grandparents, friends, pets or imaginary companions. Tell us their names, appearances, personalities and relationships, and who you want at the heart of the story.
Who checks my book?＋
Our custom design and book team checks and edits every book, reviewing the writing, illustrations, names and personal details. Creative tools help us develop the ideas, and our team refines and prepares the finished book for printing.
Is this simply an AI-generated book?＋
No. Technology helps our studio develop the first draft and visual concept, but nothing goes straight from a generator to print. A real human reviews, rewrites and refines every story before you receive it.
Is every book basically the same?＋
No. We do not start with a fixed plot. Your memories, relationships, interests, personality and requested world shape a new story from the beginning.
Will the character feel like the person?＋
You can describe their appearance, personality, favourite things and relationships, choose an art style and optionally provide a reference photo to guide the illustrated character.
What if there is a mistake in my finished book?＋
Our team carefully checks the names, relationships and personal details you submit before printing. If your finished book contains an error introduced by us or does not match the confirmed order details, contact us and we will review it promptly.
What do I need to provide?＋
A simple idea is enough to begin. We guide you through the recipient, age, story world, appearance, personality, important people, memories and anything you want us to avoid.
What will the physical book include?＋
Both 20 × 20 cm editions contain 30 interior pages: 15 writing pages paired with 15 full-page illustrations, plus a custom cover. Choose a £30.99 softback or the premium £42.99 hardback, with free UK shipping.
How much is shipping?＋
UK shipping is free for every physical softback or hardback book and is included in the total shown before payment.
