New sibling gifts

Personalized new-sibling books for a proud big brother or big sister

Help an older child welcome the baby with pride instead of worry - a story where they are the brave, important big sibling.

The arrival of a baby is huge for the child who was there first. A book starring them as the hero big brother or big sister gives them a role to be proud of, and the words to feel excited rather than pushed aside.

Common questions

What is the best gift for a child becoming a big brother or sister?

A personalized "big sibling" storybook starring the older child as the hero - it gives them a proud new role and helps them welcome the baby instead of feeling replaced.

When should I give a new-sibling book?

Read it in the weeks before the baby arrives, so the big day already feels familiar and exciting rather than uncertain.

Is the new baby in the book as well?

Each book has one hero, and here it is deliberately the older child - the point is that they get a role to be proud of rather than sharing the page. It is not that a second child cannot be drawn; it is that a book about everyone is a book about no one in particular.

What if I want one for each child?

Make the first book as normal, then choose "Make one for another child" - the occasion, the art style and the story carry over. Three or more ordered together are 5% off at checkout, with no code, and they ship in one parcel.
