The book
Here’s exactly what you get
The images below show real books fresh off our presses, not mockups.
I look at the flour, eggs, milk. It smells like vanilla. Mom Sarah whispers: “We’re missing the cocoa!”
- Illustrations span both pages: the image crosses the fold, not framed.
- The printed album is portrait format, 21 × 28 cm, with 32 interior pages. The PDF version has 13 illustrated pages.
- 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.
You review the story
The full story is sent to you before any illustrations. A misspelled name, a passage to change? We rewrite it.
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.
We print once it’s perfect
Your approval triggers printing. The book goes to the printer exactly as you approved it.
Why is a personalized book the best gift idea for kids?
Finding a gift for a child can quickly become tricky. Too many options, fear of getting it wrong, limited budget... What if the solution was simpler than you think? A Fabolia personalized book combines everything a great gift should be: original, touching, educational, and lasting. It’s the gift that pleases everyone — child, parents, and giver alike.
Unlike toys that lose appeal in days or clothes that quickly become too small, a personalized book is read over and over. Children never tire of seeing their name and photo in a unique story. It’s a gift that encourages reading, sparks imagination, and boosts self-confidence. Parents love this gift that blends fun and learning.
It’s also the universal gift idea: works for all ages (1-12 years), all budgets (from €14.90), all occasions (birthday, Christmas, birth, celebration...). No need to know the child’s exact size or tastes. A name, age, and photo are enough to create the perfect gift.
Top 3 formats by occasion: PDF at €14.90 for last-minute gifts or add-ons. Softcover at €29.90 for birthdays and celebrations. Deluxe hardcover edition at €39.90 for Christmas, births, or special occasions. Whatever your budget, there’s a personalized book for you.
