make your child the superhero of a real book
every parent knows it: your child doesn’t rún through the room, it flies. in this book that’s simply true. pick a superpower — flying, super strength, invisibility, talking to animals — and upload a few photos. we write a story where your child discovers their own power, practises a little, and then really helps someone. with a unique costume, their own hero name and a face that stays recognisably your child.
building it is free — you only pay when you order.

frequently asked
which superpowers can I choose?
flying, super strength, super speed, invisibility, talking to animals or stopping time. you pick one — that keeps the story strong and believable for your child.
will the costume look like an existing superhero?
no, deliberately not. we design a unique costume with a cape and emblem for every book — no existing heroes, logos or brands. it’s your child as a hero, not a copy of someone else.
isn’t it too scary for young children?
no. there are no frightening villains — the hero helps with things like a cat stuck in a tree or a runaway teddy. the text adapts to the age you choose, from toddler to school age.
can siblings or friends be in the book too?
yes. everyone in your photos can join — as sidekick, audience or the one being rescued. your own child is and stays the superhero of the story.
