    A memory, a family joke, their dream of becoming an astronaut. Or let Elia suggest one made just for them.

  • They recognize themselves on every page

    Likeness checked image by image, from the cover to the last page. Every page is proofread.

Every hero keeps their own face, whatever style you pick.

Frequently asked questions

What kind of photo do I need?

One or two sharp photos of their face, front-facing, no sunglasses. An everyday snapshot is enough.

Can I write the story myself?

Is the audiobook included?

Yes: as soon as the pages are ready, Elia creates the audiobook, at no extra cost. A storyteller narrates, and every character speaks in their own voice.

Can several children be heroes?

Yes: brothers, sisters, cousins, friends. Each one keeps their face throughout the story.

Does it work for an adult too?

Yes: a mystery, an epic, a tale for their 40th birthday. In cinematic or illustrated style.

What if tonight, they were the hero?
