A personalized storybook where your child is the hero. The digital book arrives by email in minutes, and a printed softcover can go right in the box.
The Christmas Eve box has become a small tradition in plenty of homes: new pajamas, a mug for hot chocolate, a movie, something to read. It is a lovely idea with the same quiet problem as everything else in December. The pajamas are outgrown by spring, the mug ends up at the back of a cupboard, and the little plastic extras are in the bin before New Year's.
A StoryFawn book is the part of the box that stays. It is a short illustrated story in which your child, by name, is the hero: the astronaut, the dragon's best friend, the one who finds the hidden cove. They can read it on Christmas Eve, ask for it again at bedtime, and still find it on the shelf next year.
Enter their name and age (1 to 8), choose how they look, and pick a world: Space, Dragons, Ocean, Fairy tale, Jungle, or Dinosaurs. No photo upload needed.
Your digital storybook arrives by email within minutes of ordering, then illustrates itself on screen, page by page. Keepsake is 12 pages; Heirloom is 20.
The finished book is yours to keep as a PDF. Add a printed softcover book and it arrives ready to wrap and tuck into the box.
Parents building the box this year who want one item that is more than filler. Grandparents who want a place in the box even from far away: order the digital book, forward it, and add the printed softcover so there is something to hold. Aunts, uncles and godparents who keep asking what to give the child who already has everything.
Giving it to a child who is not yours? Send it as a gift instead. A private gift code and a printable card arrive by email right away, and the family personalizes the details together before the reveal.
Pick the size, then decide whether the box gets a printed copy.
Digital is instant. The digital storybook arrives by email within minutes of ordering, so Christmas Eve afternoon still works for the on-screen version.
Printed takes longer. Allow about two weeks for printed copies to arrive, which means ordering the printed softcover by early December is the safe plan. If you miss it, give the digital book on Christmas Eve and tuck a note in the box saying the printed copy is on its way.
Is the book really about my child? Yes. Your child's name and look appear throughout the story, and the world is the one you choose. They are the hero, not a side character.
How fast does the digital book arrive? By email within minutes of ordering. It then illustrates itself on screen as you watch.
Can I put a real book in the box? Yes. Add a printed softcover book for +$29, or choose a gift package: Keepsake + Book is $49 and Heirloom + Book is $59. Allow about two weeks for printed copies to arrive.
What ages is it for? Children ages 1 to 8. Stories are tuned to the child's age, so the youngest get shorter, softer stories.
What is the difference between Keepsake and Heirloom? Keepsake is $24 and 12 pages. Heirloom is $39 and 20 pages, a longer story for children who like to settle in.
