Superleuke ervaring met Fonkle! Ik heb er een persoonlijk boek besteld dat met behulp van AI voor mijn dochter is gemaakt. Het hele proces was ontzettend gebruiksvriendelijk en je kunt werkelijk alles helemaal aanpassen aan je eigen wensen. Het eindresultaat is echt heel persoonlijk en bijzonder geworden. Absoluut een aanrader!

  • We hebben een boek gemaakt van de zomer 2026 van mijn kleinkindje. Heel blij mee, mooi gedrukt en snel verzonden. De prentjes lijken echt op de personages. Iedereen vindt het schitterend 😃 Moest ik toch één iets als minpuntje zeggen, ik vind het een beetje prijzig.

Why a fonkle book

Choose photos from the past year and we turn them into one flowing story: the year gone by, to read back together under the tree. December is the busiest month for the printer and the courier, so order in time.

  • Your child’s past year as a story, from spring sunshine to christmas tree
  • A gift that gets used on christmas eve itself: reading together by the tree
  • Also a lovely gift from aunts, uncles or grandparents joining for christmas
  • Free preview of the whole book before you order

Frequently asked

When do I need to order for Christmas?

Order before 11 December and the book will be under the tree before Christmas. December is the busiest month for the printer and the couriers, so the earlier, the calmer. That date applies to delivery in the Netherlands. If you live in Belgium, order a little earlier. Too late? Show the free preview on Christmas Eve and give the book after the holidays.

How do I turn it into a book about the whole year?

Choose photos from january to december, the snowman, the summer holiday, the first day of school. Every photo becomes a page, so together they naturally tell the story of your year.

Can the book be about christmas itself?

Yes. If you have photos of decorating the tree, baking biscuits or last year’s christmas dinner, it naturally becomes a christmas story. You can briefly tell us what happened when you make it.

We celebrate christmas with the whole family, can everyone be in the book?

Yes. Anyone in the photos can get a role, with their own name, cousins, grandad at the head of the table. And on christmas eve you read the book aloud while everyone’s there.

Isn’t a book a boring present under the tree?

Not when it’s about the child themselves. Unwrapping takes a moment, but after that it comes out every evening of the christmas holidays, two weeks off and dark early means a lot of bedtime stories.

Rather something small? Make a christmas colouring page from your photo, €1
