Questions people ask
- What if they already have everything?
- That's usually the point. This isn't an object they could have bought themselves — it's a book that only exists because of who's in it, which is why it tends to get read aloud rather than put in a cupboard.
- Can I put the grandchildren in it too?
- Yes. You can add several people to the cast, and each one gets their own approved portrait so they look like themselves throughout the book.
- How long does it take?
- The book itself is written and illustrated in minutes — you can read it the same day. A printed hardcover takes longer, since it's produced and shipped, so order with time to spare if it's for a specific date.
- Can I read it before I pay?
- Yes. Every page is generated and readable before any payment. Ordering the printed hardcover is a separate decision afterwards.
- Can I order more than one copy?
- Yes, and it's usually worth it — families tend to want a copy each. Extra copies of the same book ship together.
