How the Story Is Created

From your details to a personalized story

Your Tiny Tale creates a personalized printed hardcover book using the child’s name, age, and photo. During the order form, you can also upload a photo for a secondary character if wanted.

The base price starts at $34.99 and includes a 30-page printed hardcover book with up to two characters in the story. An additional character can be added for $3.50. Shipping is added separately at checkout, and applicable taxes may also be added depending on location.

The order process

  • Share the story details: Provide the child’s name and age, upload a photo, and optionally add a secondary character photo.
  • Choose shipping: Enter the delivery address, choose a shipping method, and see the estimated shipping price.
  • Review the order: Check the order summary and choose any optional add-ons.
  • Complete payment: You are redirected to Stripe to complete payment.
  • Story creation begins: Your Tiny Tale uses AI-assisted tools to help create the story and illustrations efficiently, with personalization as the goal.

Human review before printing

Every story is personally reviewed before printing to make sure the story and illustrations look right and read well. If AI-assisted tools help create story or illustration content, human review happens before the book is printed.

Before printing, you receive a PDF preview for review. Nothing is sent to print until you have reviewed the preview and approved the book.

Preview approval and optional changes

During checkout, you can choose an optional change request add-on. With this add-on, you can request up to three changes to the story, text, or personalization details after reviewing the PDF preview received by email.

If you do not choose the change request add-on, the printed book will be printed as shown in the PDF preview without a revision step. If changes are requested, the process may take longer because revisions are handled manually before printing.

Shipping availability and timing

Your Tiny Tale currently supports shipping to Australia (AU), Canada (CA), Finland (FI), Ireland (IE), Malta (MT), New Zealand (NZ), United Kingdom (GB), and United States (US).

Production and shipping times vary depending on your location and selected shipping option. Delivery estimates are shown when you choose a shipping option during checkout. In some cases, a printed book arrives within about a week.

What customers have shared

Shruti loved the personalized book experience because it felt nostalgic and helped her see herself as a baby in NYC, especially since she did not have many pictures from that time.

Claudia described “Cleona’s Big Sydney Adventure” as a unique keepsake with great quality, and found the ordering process smooth and delivery really fast.

Annika ordered a Christmas story for her sister’s daughters and described the book as good, thoughtfully made, and a memorable gift.
