A peek inside

How the adventure unfolds

These are just sample lines. Your book is written fresh for your child - their name woven through every page, with the words, sentence length and tone tuned to their age, and shaped by the story, interests and details you choose.

A hat far too tall, worn seriously, above an apron folded over twice at the waist.
Chapter One

The Tall White Hat

Your child tied a little apron, straightened a tall chef's hat, and declared the kitchen open.

A hat far too tall, worn seriously, above an apron folded over twice at the waist.

Flour in the air and on everything, mid-cloud, with two hands raised in the middle of it.
Chapter Two

A Pinch of Magic

Flour flew like snow as your child stirred the pot - and added one secret pinch of magic.

Flour in the air and on everything, mid-cloud, with two hands raised in the middle of it.

The tasting: a spoon held out to an adult, and a face waiting for the verdict.
Chapter Three

The Grand Tasting

The dish came out golden and glorious, and your child took the proudest little bow.

The tasting: a spoon held out to an adult, and a face waiting for the verdict.

These three sample the opening, middle and ending of a 12-chapter book. All twelve are drawn with your child in them when the book is made: the cover and chapter one free in your preview, the remaining eleven once you order.

Is this the one?

Who the Littlest Chef is for

The Littlest Chef is a mess with a recipe in it. Flour goes everywhere in the middle chapter and nobody minds, which is the permission the book is really handing out. It suits a child who wants to help in the kitchen and is usually being politely kept out of it.

Four to eight. Younger children want the flour cloud. From six the secret ingredient joke lands properly, because a child that age can hold the idea that the answer was never a thing you could buy. Reading level chosen at setup.

For Idan, who cooks with every pan in the house and washes up none of them.

Common questions

What age is The Littlest Chef for?

The Littlest Chef is written for ages 4-8. 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 Littlest Chef 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.
