The drawings and sheets are free to print at home, preschool and school, but not to sell.

Your child’s drawing can be the hero of a book

Photograph the drawing and upload it instead of a photo of your child. The story is written around the character, and the illustrations are painted to look like it on every page, from the cover to the final spread.

Color in your unicorn

The mane could be every color of the rainbow, and the horn could be gold or silver. You could add more stars or swap them for hearts.
