IN THE MAKING

Today, a new word.
Tomorrow, your own story.

We’re building a place where grown-ups can turn a child’s idea into an illustrated book to read together.

Choose a reading age, language, and art style. Shape the words and pictures, then make a reading PDF or a booklet to print and fold.

The storybook studio is still in development. These free activities are ready to play now.

A sneak peek
A watercolour picture across two pages. A shy orange kitten in a red helmet peeks out from the sunflowers while a grey rabbit waves from the garden path.

In a cozy village full of gardens lived Katzi, a small orange kitten. He had soft stripes, round cheeks, and very shy paws. When neighbors said hello, he hid behind flowerpots and whispered, “Hi.” But inside, Katzi had a huge, brave dream.1

He wanted to be a firefighter! Not with real fires, of course. He loved the toy fire truck, the shiny pretend helmet, and helping friends feel safe. “Firefighters listen and stay calm,” Mama purred. Katzi nodded fast. His heart thump-thumped. Tomorrow was pretend training day!2

A spread from Katzi Learns to Listen, a test book made in the studio. The words stay separate from the picture, so you can change either one.
