Every story, character, and illustration is generated from scratch, not a template with a name swapped in. Most books are about a new character your child can identify with: a raccoon starting kindergarten, a knight rescuing the Internet Connection, a superhero with an insulin pump. You can upload a photo and the system will convert your child into the chosen illustration style as a character, but more often it's the story itself that makes it personal.
A few examples from our showcase (storystarling.com/en/showcase):
- A boy obsessed with elevators visiting magical floors: candy floor, dinosaur floor, space floor
- A girl with hearing aids who can hear animals' thoughts, bilingual Polish/English
- Vim vs Emacs, but they're two wizards casting spells. "Choose your weapon wisely."
Bilingual books in 38 languages. Pick a main language and an optional translation and the full book renders in both. We handle RTL scripts like Arabic and Hebrew (right-to-left text, but left-to-right page order so bilingual layouts work naturally) and CJK typesetting. We also support less common languages like Estonian, Maltese, Irish, and Low German where children's book options are limited.
How it works: Type anything from a two-word idea ("dinosaurs soccer") to a detailed storyline, pick a style (~20 styles), choose languages, optionally upload reference photos, and hit generate. You get a free preview with the cover and synopsis, no payment required. If you like it, the full 28-page book generates and you review it in a flipbook viewer. Edit text and regenerate pages before approving, then it goes to print. Booklet (~20 EUR) or hardcover (~40 EUR), shipping included, 3-7 days in the EU.
I'd love to hear what stories you'd make.
