1. You tell us about your child
When you order, you fill in a short form. We ask for:
- Your child's first name and age (the book is made for ages 4 to 10)
- What they look like, in a sentence or two: hair, skin, eyes, glasses, favorite color
- Three things they love, such as baking, dinosaurs or ice skating
- If you like, something kind they did this year, which Santa mentions in his letter
- If you like, a dedication in your own words and who the book is from
We ask adults for these details, never children. We do not ask for a photo of your child or their last name.
2. We write the story
We use AI to write a story around your answers. It is always Christmas Eve. Something small has gone wrong at the North Pole, a friendly messenger arrives at your child's window, and your child helps put things right with the things they love. There is no villain and nobody is ever in danger. On Christmas morning there is a small sign that it really happened.
The length and the words follow the age you give. A five-year-old gets short sentences to hear at bedtime. A nine-year-old gets more to read on their own.
3. We make the pictures
First we make one reference picture of your child from your description. Every page is then drawn from that reference, so your child looks like the same child from the first page to the last. The pictures are in a painted, storybook style. Illustrations are made with AI and checked by a person.
4. A person checks every page
Before anything goes to you or the printer, one of us opens the whole book and goes through it page by page. We check that your child looks the same throughout, that names are spelled right, that no picture has stray words or anything odd in it, and that nothing could worry a small child. A page that is not right is made again. Then the person who checked it signs the book off by name. Nothing is printed without that sign-off.
5. Your book arrives
The digital book arrives first, as a PDF with the read-aloud audio. The voice in the audio is made with AI. The hardcover is then printed and posted to you. Prices, delivery times and the Christmas order dates will be on this site when orders open.
Afterwards
Thirty days after your book is delivered, we delete your child's details and the book files. We keep only the order record that accounting law requires. Your child's details are never sold and never used to train AI. The privacy page has the full detail.
