Create, Read, Share.
Level Up as an Author.
Everything your child needs to create stories, build a readership, and fall in love with books — in one safe, gamified platform.
From One Prompt to a Full Picture Book
Kids type a single idea and our AI crafts a complete story with 10-15 pages of text and beautiful illustrations. Choose an art style, set the reading level, and watch the magic happen — all powered by Sparks.
One prompt creates a complete narrative with beginning, middle, and end. The AI decides optimal page count.
Choose from Watercolor, 3D Render, Cartoon, Storybook, and more. Each page gets a unique illustration.
Set the target age range to adjust vocabulary complexity, sentence length, and word count.
Every book includes a generated cover image, title, and 10-15 fully illustrated story pages.
Bring Your Own Characters to Life
Create characters from a text description or upload a reference image (parent-gated). Characters are rendered as 3D models that can be seamlessly inserted into any book and redrawn to match any art style.
Describe your character in words: 'A brave girl with red hair and a green cape.' Our AI brings them to life.
Upload a photo or drawing for the AI to base the character on. This feature is protected by the parent gate.
Characters are created as 3D renders then automatically redrawn to match whichever art style your book uses.
Remix Any Story, Your Way
Love a story but want to change the language? The characters? The art style? Remix it. Every remix keeps a family tree linking back to the original — and original authors get notified when their work inspires others.
Change the language, rewrite sections, adjust the target age/difficulty, or swap character names. Keeps the original illustrations.
Completely redraws all illustrations in your chosen art style, with your custom characters inserted. A brand-new visual experience.
