How it works

Three steps to a story
they'll ask for tonight.

Open the app, add a photo, and we'll write and illustrate a one-of-a-kind picture book around your child — ready to read together in minutes.

01
Step One

Add a photo of your kid

A name and a photo is enough. We'll turn them into the hero of the story.

02
Step Two

Pick a theme

Choose a ready-made adventure, or tell us your own idea. Watercolor is free for everyone.

03
Step Three

Read together in minutes

We write and illustrate 16 pages. Open the book on iPhone or iPad and watch them find themselves on every page.

Why parents open it tonight

Their face,
on every page.

Not a name swapped into a template. An original 16-page story, illustrated around your child's photo, ready to read in the app.

Your child, truly the hero

Add a photo and a few details. They show up in the story — recognizable, not a generic cartoon.

Their photos stay yours

Used to make the book. Never sold. Deletable in the app. Full stop.

My daughter asks for her StoryKrafters book every single night. Seeing her face when she recognizes herself in the illustrations is priceless.
