The Personalization Engine

Your Tiny Tale creates a personalized hardcover storybook starring the child character. Customers can upload a photo, choose a story theme, provide the child name and age, and order a one-of-a-kind 30-page book featuring the child.

Each story is designed for children under five, with simple, visual storytelling meant to be read together with an adult reader.

Personalization Built Around the Child

Your Tiny Tale uses personalization input so the child is visually and narratively part of the story, not just mentioned by name. The story can be shaped around the child’s name, age, photo, preferences, art style, and selected theme.

  • Upload a photo of the child.
  • Provide character details such as the child name and age.
  • Select a playful story theme or write a custom story theme.
  • Choose an art style for the personalized book.
  • Add an included character when wanted, such as a parent, sibling, grandparent, godparent, or friend.

Included Characters and Story Settings

Your Tiny Tale can include secondary characters such as grandma, big brother, a parent, grandparent, or friend. Families often use included characters to help a child connect with people who live far away or are not part of daily life.

Story themes can reflect meaningful places, routines, and moments. Examples include an adventure through New York City, a beach day, a Christmas story theme with a new home, and a vehicle-focused story for children who love cars, trucks, and machines.

From Inputs to a Full Story

The order process begins with the customer providing character details, uploading a child photo, and adding a secondary character photo if wanted. During shipping selection, the customer provides the address for shipment and selects or calculates the shipping method.

After review and payment through Stripe, Your Tiny Tale generates the personalized story for the child character. A human reviewer always reviews every story content output.

If the customer selected the 'PDF Preview' service add on, the customer can request up to 3 changes before printing.

Hardcover Format and Keepsake Value

Each book is custom-created and printed as a premium hardcover designed to be treasured for years. Your Tiny Tale books are made as durable hardcover keepsakes that can capture a specific moment in time, such as a summer vacation, a favorite geographic place, or a fleeting season of childhood.

The core storybook is a 30-page hardcover format. The starting price is $34.99 for an 8x8 inch (20x20 cm) hardcover book.
