What you get
How your printed book works
Preview every page first
Flip through a page-by-page print preview, so you know exactly what will be printed before you order.
Square, landscape or portrait
Choose the shape that suits the story: classic square, wide landscape scenes, or a tall portrait book.
Short or long
A book needs at least 4 pages. The longest you can print depends on the cover, and the preview tells you if a book needs pages added or removed.
A grown-up checks out
Kids make the book. A grown-up reviews it and pays at checkout, so nothing prints by accident.
Printed on demand
Each book is printed when you order it and shipped to your door.
Home or grandparents
Ship it to your home, or send it straight to the grandparents.

Questions
Printing, answered
What size is the printed book, and what is it printed on?
Books are printed in full color in one of three sizes: square (8.5″ × 8.5″), landscape (11″ × 8.5″) or portrait (8.5″ × 11″).
How many pages can a book have?
At least 4. The most a book can have depends on the cover type, and the print preview tells you if a book is too short or too long for the cover you picked.
Can I see the book before I order?
Yes. You can flip through a page-by-page print preview before you order, so there are no surprises.
Which countries do you ship to?
We ship to many countries. Enter the delivery address at checkout to see the shipping options and costs for it.
How long will it take to arrive?
Each book is printed on demand after you order. You'll see the shipping options and estimated delivery for your address at checkout.
Can I order more copies later?
Yes. Your book stays in your library, so you can order another copy whenever you like, for yourself or for family.
Can kids place an order on their own?
No. Every print order is reviewed and paid for by a grown-up at checkout.
