I look at the flour, eggs, milk. It smells like vanilla. Mom Sarah whispers: “We’re missing the cocoa!”

  • The PDF is downloadable once you’ve approved everything; then the book goes to print.

You’re in control

You approve each page. Only then do we print.

No surprises when your package arrives: you review the story, see every illustration, and request corrections as many times as needed.

1

You review the story

The full story is sent to you before any illustrations. A misspelled name, a passage to change? We rewrite it.

2

You see every illustration

All illustrated pages, one by one. A face that doesn’t match, an outfit that’s different? We regenerate the affected page.

3

We print once it’s perfect

Your approval triggers printing. The book goes to the printer exactly as you approved it.

Why give your grandchildren a personalized book?

As grandparents, you want a gift that truly delights, one that won’t end up forgotten in a drawer after two days. A Fabolia personalized book is that rare gift: every time the child reads it, they think of you. Your grandchild becomes the hero of a beautifully illustrated adventure, with their name on every page and their face in the images.

It’s also a unique sharing moment when you read the story together. Picture this: your grandchild snuggled up with you, marveling at being the main character of the book. Their eyes widening as they recognize themselves in the illustrations. These moments of closeness build the most precious childhood memories.

For grandparents who live far away, this book is a precious link. Send the PDF by email and suggest a remote reading via video call. Or have the printed version delivered as a surprise. The child will know that grandma and grandpa are always thinking of them, even hundreds of miles away.

The personalized Fabolia book is easy to create, even if you’re not tech-savvy. In 5 minutes, choose options, add a photo and the name. From €14.90 as a PDF, €29.90 in softcover, €39.90 in deluxe hardcover edition. A small price for great joy.
