Birthday gift
A birthday gift they will not get twice
Gift cards and candles blur together. A comic book where the birthday person is the hero, with their own jokes in it, stays on the shelf. One photo, a free preview, and a digital copy in minutes.
Good for every age
A comic book works for a friend turning thirty, a parent turning sixty or a child turning six. For young children there is a personalized picture book, and for pets there is a version starring the dog or cat.
The birthday adventure turns the day itself into a quest, and any of the other stories can be given a birthday ending.
Last-minute friendly
If the birthday is tomorrow, a digital book is typically ready in minutes and can be forwarded as a download. If you have time, a printed book is the keepsake.
For a big milestone, the Life Story book illustrates a whole life from their own photos.

Questions
Can I order it for someone far away?
Yes. Printed books ship to the address you enter, and a digital copy can be emailed or forwarded.
Do I need more than one photo?
No. One clear photo of the person is enough for a comic. The Life Story book uses several.
What if I do not like the result?
Email us within 14 days and we will fix it or refund you.
Can I make one for a child or a pet?
Yes. There is a picture book for kids, ready-made stories that need no photo, and a pet version.
