An example book
The Candle That Knew Her Name
A real book this template produced. Every illustration and every line made by the same pipeline, nothing mocked up. It is an example, not your book: yours will star your child, in a story written for them.
Cover
This sample stars a made-up child called Nell.
The brief we start from
A birthday story. I want a whole adventure that happens on my child's birthday — cake, candles and all the people who love them at the end of it — a book that is a present, not just a card with pictures.
This goes to the storyteller exactly as written, as though you had typed it yourself. Everything after it is about your child.
What we'll need from you
- Your child's name and age
- A photo, if you have a good one. It's what makes the illustrations look like them
- Who the book is from, for the cover
Where it lands
