For all the “read it again” years.

How it works

Three simple steps. One story to keep.

  1. Your memory

    Tell us about your family and a moment worth keeping.

    A family photograph, a memory note and a brass fountain pen

    First steps
    at home.

  2. Their world, illustrated

    Approve their portraits before your story takes shape.

    A smiling child's watercolor portrait with soft paint swatches and a note

    Looks just
    like her!

  3. A story to keep

    Read every page, make adjustments, then choose your edition.

A note from the creators

We made Nidobook because we wanted our daughter to find the people she loves inside the stories we read at night, and to hold onto the ordinary family moments that become precious so quickly.
