A personalised book for the very youngest, ages 0–2

How the very youngest listen

A child under two understands far more than they can say. They recognise faces, voices and rhythms, and they like hearing the same thing many times. That is why the books for ages 0–2 have short sentences that repeat, sounds to copy and pages where one thing happens at a time. Seeing their own face, or mum's or big sister's, makes the child point, laugh and want to read again. The text is also set in a larger size, so that it can be seen even when you read together in bed.

From eBook to a book to hold

The eBook is ready in a few minutes. The A4 hardback book has a thick cover and pages that stand up to being turned; see the prices.

A book that grows with the child

When the child is older you can make a new book with the same characters, with more text and a bigger adventure. The first book becomes a memory of what it was like when the child was small.
