A Job With Rules

Good at It

By the end of the week your child was extremely good at it, and did not want the job given to anybody else.

Common questions

What age is The Big One Now for?

The Big One Now is written for ages 0-8. The story is generated at the reading level you pick during setup, so the same book works at the younger or older end of that range.

How is The Big One Now personalized?

You upload one photo of your child. That photo becomes the illustrated hero - same face shape, hair and skin tone - and stays recognizable across all 12 chapters. Their name, age and a dedication are woven in too.

How long is the book, and what formats are there?

Twelve illustrated chapters, one full-page illustration per chapter. Digital is $14.90, softcover $38.90 and hardcover $42.90 plus shipping; the hardcover is a 8x8 inch matt-laminated keepsake.

Can I see it before I pay?

Yes. The cover and the whole first chapter - artwork included - are generated free. You only pay if you want the remaining eleven chapters.
