Make the story even more meaningful by adding familiar faces. You can include up to two supporting characters in your book.

Available character types:

  • Mom or Dad

  • Sibling (you'll provide their age and gender)

  • Best Friend (you'll provide their age and gender)

  • Grandma or Grandpa

  • Pet (dog or cat)

For each human character, you'll upload a photo so we can create a personalised illustration of them in the story. The same photo guidelines apply: a clear, front-facing photo with only one person visible works best.

Supporting characters appear naturally in the storyline alongside the main character, making the book feel personal and familiar.
