Why Families Love Bookids

We believe storytime should be fun for children and meaningful for parents. That's why we bring experts into the creative process.

Approved by Experts, Loved by Kids

Every Bookids story is developed with child psychologists, educators, and literacy specialists. They help us make sure each book supports real emotional growth, not just entertains. Because storytime should do both.

The Mirror Effect

When children see themselves in the story (their name, their face, their family), something clicks. They don't just listen. They lean in, point at the page, and ask to read it again. Research calls this the Mirror Effect: children engage more deeply when the story is about them.

How can I give Feedback?

We'd love to hear from you! Share your feedback, suggestions, or requests through our contact form.

What ages are these books for?

From their very first storytime to their first chapter book, we have stories for children ages 0 to 9. Each book is written for the right stage, with themes and illustrations that grow with them.

How long does shipping take?

Shipping times vary by location. Typically, orders are printed and shipped within 3-5 business days. Delivery usually takes an additional 5-10 business days depending on your country.

What characters can I include in my book?

Each book series is thoughtfully designed around specific character roles—like a protagonist child, siblings, parents, or beloved pets. When you personalize your book, you'll assign your own characters to these roles, customizing their names and unique avatars. Explore our series to find the perfect fit for your family! We're also working on new series with even more flexibility—including the ability to create your own custom characters.

What print quality do you offer?

We offer premium hardcover and softcover options. All books are printed on high-quality, sustainably sourced paper with vibrant, durable inks designed to withstand years of bedtime reading.

Can I preview the book before ordering?

Your illustrated book is created uniquely for you after ordering, but you can preview key elements before checkout: see your personalized character avatars, review your dedication message, and explore example pages in our shop. If your character's look isn't quite right, our team is happy to help—just reach out!

Where do you ship to?

We currently ship to the United States and Spain, with books available in English and Spanish. We're actively expanding to more countries and languages. If you'd like to request your region, we'd love to hear from you through our contact form!
