The magic is seeing them inside the story.

Published customer stories

“We just welcomed our first child, and in a few quick steps I was able to create a story starring our whole family. It couldn’t have been more intuitive. And after seeing how it turned out, I mean it when I say it: trust the process.”

Tyler S. · Created Trust the Process

“Making a book about me and my brothers was ridiculously easy—and seeing the three of us as the stars of our own story was even better. We couldn’t stop laughing at how good it came out.”

Eric H. · Created Three brothers great adventure

“My son-in-law made this for me about my two grandkids having a sleepover at Nana and Papa’s. I actually cried a little when I saw it.”

Lee P. · Created Jack and Riley have a sleepover at Nana and Papa

How it works

From one photo to their finished story.

Personalize first, pay securely, then preview and approve the finished proof before printing.

  1. Step 1

    Choose the moment

    Coming home, the first weeks, meeting their people, or a gentle welcome to the world.

  2. Step 2

    Add their people

    One clear photo of the baby is enough. Parents, siblings, grandparents, and pets are optional.

  3. Step 3

    Share the details that matter

    Optional notes and place photos help the story feel like your family—not a stock plot.

  4. Step 4

    Pay, then approve every page

    We create the full book after checkout. Printing waits for your approval.

Good to know

Is this the same story with a different name?+

No. The moment, people, places, and details you choose guide an original keepsake. The new baby sample book is one complete fictional example.

Who is a new baby book for?+

It centers on a newborn or young baby and is read aloud by the grown-ups. Many families keep it as the first book on the shelf and read it again as the child grows.

Is this the same as a big sibling book?+

No. A sibling book centers on the older child. This new baby book centers on the baby, and big siblings can join the story as part of the welcome.

Can it be a baby shower gift?+

Yes, with a parent's permission to use the baby's photo. Many guests order after the birth, when a photo is ready.

What will arrive?+

Choose a softcover or hardcover book. A downloadable PDF is included, and you approve the complete proof before printing. It is not a board book.

Are these photos from a customer?+

No. This is a fictional sample of a personalized new baby book. The complete reader uses pages from the sample print file.

Give them a keepsake of the night they came home.
