How your book is madeFrom first memory to your front door.

What makes it different

  • Your story, not a template

    Most personalised books change a name and a hair colour. Ours is written from the memories, people and places you share.

  • Drawn from your photos

    Amy illustrates your family as characters, so Grandad actually looks like Grandad.

  • Made in Ireland

    Written, illustrated, printed and packed here, then posted to your door or straight to the person it's for.

  • You read every page first

    You see the whole finished book and approve it before anything is printed.

Who people make them for

  • A Christmas present for Granny or Grandad
  • A new baby or first birthday
  • An anniversary or wedding
  • Remembering someone you've lost
  • Getting a child ready for school, a move or a new sibling
  • A thank-you to someone who shaped your life

How it works

You answer a few gentle questions and add photos in your own time. Amy writes and illustrates the book, you read the complete proof, and only when you approve is it printed and posted. You pay a small deposit to start and the balance once you've approved your book.
