Questions about our new books

How does a personalized Magic Story book work?

Upload one clear photo of your child and add their name. We turn the photo into an illustrated character and make your child the hero of the story, with their name throughout. Each book is printed to order as a hardcover. See which photo works best.

Can I see a free preview before I buy?

Yes. Create your child’s character from one photo and see a free personalized book preview, with no account or credit card needed. The preview shows your child in a scene or on a cover from the book you choose, not every page. See how the free preview works.

What ages are these books for?

Magic Story books are made for children ages 2 to 10. Younger children enjoy them as read-alouds, and older children can follow the story on their own. Some books give their own age range on their page.

Can I give a Magic Story book as a gift?

Yes. Grandparents, family and friends can personalize a book with the child’s name and a photo their parent or guardian has approved, then enter the family’s address at checkout. In the US, you can also send a Magic Story+ gift subscription, and the family personalizes the books themselves. See how to buy a book as a gift.
