A storybook starring your child

Your voice, telling their story. Forever.

A hand-illustrated book where your child is the hero, read aloud in the real voice of someone who loves them. From the next room, or from three time zones away.

The moment

The first time they hear your voice come out of the story.

They see their own name on the page. Their house. Their little brother. And then the story begins to read itself, in the voice that has always meant safe.

Teddy and the Lost Toy, page 7 Grandpa’s voice

Teddy hugged his little robot tight. “Don’t you worry,” he whispered. “Wherever you go, I will always come and find you.”

Whose voice

Some voices a child never forgets.

A thousand miles away

The grandparent who can’t be there tonight

Distance is nothing to a bedtime story. Grandma reads it every single night, the same warm voice, the same “goodnight,” from wherever she is.

The parent who travels

Away for work again? Your voice still reads the bedtime story, in your words, even on the nights you can’t be there to turn the page.

The voice worth keeping

A voice you love, reading a story your child stars in, saved exactly as it sounds today. Something they will still have long after tonight.

How it works

Three minutes of reading. A bedtime they’ll ask for every night.

1

Read for three minutes

Any grown-up who loves them, a parent or a grandparent, reads one short story out loud on their phone. That’s it. That’s the voice.

2

Tell us about the child

Their name, their world, their little brother, their pet, what makes them them. Send the idea for the story you want.

3

Open it together

We hand-make their illustrated book. They see their own story. They hear your voice reading it, with the words lighting up, one by one.

Real pages, real books

Drawn around one particular child.

Soft watercolor and colored pencil, no two books alike, because no two children are. These pages are from real books we’ve made.

The book that gets read forty nights in a row.

“He recognized my voice in the very first sentence. He looked up and said, ‘Daddy, you’re in the book.’ He’s asked for it every night since.”

A dad, reading from the road

“I live across the country from my granddaughter. Now she falls asleep to my voice, reading her a story she stars in. I cried the first time I heard it back.”

A grandma, three states away
These are the reactions this is built for. Yours goes here next.

Make the story they’ll never forget hearing.

Tell us who it’s for and what happens in it. We’ll turn it into a real illustrated book, read aloud in the voice they love.

Or record a voice first, so it’s ready the moment the book is.
