Your story, in a 30-page coloring book.
Turn familiar faces, favorite places, and little details into a story you can read and color together. Send your photos and an idea; we create a connected adventure with readable story text beneath each picture.
What comes in your book
Your personalized paperback includes 30 illustrated coloring pages, a full-color outside cover, and a story that unfolds in order. The inside artwork stays black and white so you can choose the colors. Each coloring page has a blank back in the printed book.
The finished book measures 8.5 × 11 inches. The 30-page count means 30 illustrated coloring pages; blank backs and the separate outside cover are not extra story scenes.
A small adventure with room for the details
This format suits a focused story: a birthday adventure, a family afternoon at the park, a favorite pet’s escapade, or one meaningful chapter from your life. A beloved toy can join the cast. Glasses, curls, a familiar outfit, and a treasured place help the characters feel like your people.
You can give us a complete idea, a short list of moments, or creative freedom to build the story around the details you share.
Photos, story, then your finished book
Choose the people and pets, add clear photos, and tell us what should happen. You can specify exact names, dates, a gift note, and words that belong at the ending. Review your details before completing checkout.
The book costs $39.99 with US shipping included. After ordering, use the private link in your confirmation email to check the book’s progress. If the gift is for a particular date, share that with us; contact us before ordering if timing is essential.
When will my printed book arrive?
Allow about 3 weeks from order to delivery for a printed book. This estimate includes 5 days to create your custom book, followed by Lulu’s printing and standard Mail delivery. Lulu normally prints in 3–5 business days; printing and Mail delivery together take about 2 weeks.
Delivery dates are estimates, not guarantees. Holidays, busy periods, and carrier delays can take longer, especially outside the continental US. Please contact us before ordering if your gift needs to arrive by a particular date.
