A Gift Book for Mom: Her Story, in Your Words

An original gift for mom is not another bracelet. It is a book where you tell her what she is to you: the meals, the rides to afternoon classes, the sentence she says when you are sad, and the time she stood by you when nobody else did.

You answer seven short questions, upload one photo of mom, and within a minute there is an illustrated book where she is the hero, with her real face. You see the cover and two pages for free, and you order only if you love it.

A book for mom's birthday, Mother's Day or any reason

A personal book for mom fits a birthday, a milestone birthday, Mother's Day, a thank-you after a baby, or just because you feel like saying it. You choose the tone: funny, with all her little habits, or moving, with what you never said.

You can write it on your own, or all the siblings can answer the questions together and appear beside her in the illustrations.
