A personalised book with Grandad in it is a story the two of them share. In these tales Grandad has a part written for him, and he is drawn with his own face beside your child in every scene he is in, from Geppetto’s workshop in Pinocchio to the godfather who brings the gift in The Nutcracker. Read it together at the next visit, or on a call when he lives far away: it is the kind of book grandparents keep.
Questions about books with grandparents
How does Grandad get into the book?
When you make the book, add a clear photo of him and choose his part in the tale. He is drawn from that photo in every scene he is in, next to your child.
Can Grandma and Grandad both be in the story?
Yes. One book holds up to three people, so Grandma, Grandad and your child can all be in the same story.
Can grandparents read it if they live far away?
Yes. It is a digital book, so there is nothing to post: download it as a PDF and send it to them.
Can grandparents give one as a gift?
Yes. They can make the book themselves with a photo of their grandchild, or send a gift card by email so the parents choose the tale and the photos.
