How it works
Their life, as a story your grandkids will love
No writing, no effort. Grandma or Grandpa just talks.
They share their stories
Biographer interviews your mom or dad in warm conversation: the childhood tales, the family legends, the little lessons only they can pass down.
We turn it into a children's book
Their stories become a beautifully illustrated, kid-friendly book, shaped with the help of an award-winning novelist.
Read it together, forever
Print it, gift it, read it at bedtime, so your kids get to know their grandparents through stories only they can tell.
Why it matters
The best way for your kids to know their grandparents.
Grandparents are full of stories your children would love, and would otherwise never hear. A children's book turns those stories into something small hands can hold, and ask for again and again.
We've turned stories into children's books, songs, and animated tales, and it's pure magic to watch a grandchild meet their grandparent through them.
Make their children's bookWhat you get
A keepsake, and a connection
A real illustrated book
Professionally written and illustrated from your parent's own stories, not a fill-in-the-blank template.
Their stories, kid-ready
The family history and hard-won wisdom, retold so your children can enjoy it now and grow into it later.
The whole story, saved too
Beyond the book, every story is kept in their own words and voice, yours to revisit and turn into more.
"Stories can be so much more than a chapter: children's books, songs, animations. Watching our storytellers see their lives reflected back is pure magic."
Jared, co-founder
