birthday

Being a birthday kid is already special, but with a personalized book, it becomes something truly unforgettable. Your child becomes the hero of their own story, complete with their name, their looks, and sometimes even their friends woven throughout. Not a toy that ends up forgotten in a corner after a few weeks, but a gift that lasts forever. Perfect for every age, from first birthday to teenage years. Choose a story that matches the birthday child's personality and create a birthday they'll never forget.

Create your book

A birthday gift that's truly all about your child

At a birthday party, your child deserves to shine. A personalized picture book puts him or her literally in the starring role. Not a toy that ends up in the corner after a week, but a story that lasts for years and gets read again and again.

Why a Personal Book Works

Your child's name, appearance, and sometimes age appear in the story
Suitable for every age, from toddler to teenager
A gift that can't break or get lost among other toys
Nice for parents, grandparents, godparents or friends to give

For every birthday party

Whether it's the first birthday or the tenth, choose a story that matches the age and interests of the birthday child. That way, the gift becomes just as unique as the child themselves.

Frequently asked questions

From what age is a personalized birthday book suitable?

Our books are for toddlers to teens. When you order, you select the birthday child's age so the story and text are perfectly matched. Your book grows alongside your child.

Can I really make my child look like me?

You choose the hair color, skin tone, and other features, so the main character looks just like your child. That way it's not just any story—it becomes their own personal adventure.

Can I add a personal message to the book?

Yes, you can add your own message or congratulations, for example from grandma and grandpa or from the whole class. That text will appear on a separate page, distinct from the story.

Is this also a nice gift if my child isn't having a birthday, but a friend is?

Absolutely. You simply personalize the book with the birthday person's name and appearance. That way you give a gift no one else has, even if it's not your own child.

Can I also include brothers, sisters or pets in the story?

With many books, you can add extra characters, like a brother, sister, or pet. They'll then get their own role in the story alongside the birthday child.
