Personalized Books for a 1-year-old

Every book is a complete, finished story illustrated with your child in it, drawn from one to three photos you upload, with their name in the story. These are the stories that suit age 1. The cover and two pages are a free preview; the whole book is $14.99 as a print-ready PDF.

Reading at 1

At one, books are for looking and pointing. Big, clear pictures of a familiar face, their own, hold attention best, and you do the reading. A page or two at a time is a good session.

Picking a book

A first-birthday book becomes a keepsake more than a reader. “The Day You Were Born” is made for this age; print it as a hardcover so it survives being carried around.
