Create a book for Arlo

Personalised children's book for Arlo👦

Why a book for Arlo?

A book where Arlo is the hero, with Arlo's own name in the text and Arlo in the pictures. Here is a suggestion for how it could turn out.

A personalised book is a gift that shows you have thought of Arlo in particular. It suits birthdays, Christmas or a perfectly ordinary evening, and it is read again and again. Write a foreword to Arlo, and the book becomes a message to keep as well.

This suggestion is about the fire brigade: The alarm goes off at the fire station, and your child gets to put on a helmet and come along. You can choose another theme from our 91, and tell us what Arlo likes, and it will be woven into the plot.

It is quick. Fill in Arlo's age and interests, upload a photo and choose a style. A few minutes after payment the eBook is ready, and you can change the texts and pictures before you order it as a hardcover.

Children love hearing their own name. When Arlo sees themselves solve the riddle and save the day, the book becomes a favourite, and brothers, sisters, parents or the pet can join the adventure.

How Arlo's book could begin

The alarm wailed through the station. The firefighters ran to the engine, and one of them turned round. “Come on, we need you,” she said, handing you a helmet that was just the right size.
