Questions parents ask
Do I need a photo?
No. A few words about how your child looks are enough. If you add a photo, it stays private: we use it only to draw the portrait and delete it as soon as you approve one, or within about a day if you don’t.
How long does it take?
The portrait takes under a minute. The free Preview is ready in about 2 minutes and we email it to you, so you can close the page. After paying, the whole book usually arrives within a few minutes.
What if I don’t like the portrait?
Ask for another drawing before you go on. You only pay after you have seen the Preview, and only if you want the whole book.
What do I get when I pay?
The cover and 12 illustrated pages to read on any device, a PDF to download and print, and a private link to share with family.
Do I need an account?
No password, no subscription. Just your email: we send the book there, and the same email opens your books later.
