Siblings and Twins
Two Kids, Two Books,
Each One the Hero
One book with both names in it makes one child the sidekick. A book each means nobody is the supporting character in their own bedtime story.

The question we get more than any other from parents of more than one child is whether both kids can go in the same book. The honest answer is no, and after making a lot of these we think that is the right answer rather than a limitation. A personalized book works because the child opens it and finds themselves on every page, solving the problem, saving the day, wearing the cape. Put a sibling in beside them and one of them is the hero and the other is the friend who helps. Children notice that immediately, and they remember which one they were. So each book stars one child, built from their own photos, their own interests and their own reading level. If you have two, you make two.
Why parents pick us
A real one-of-one book, made for one real kid.
Nobody is the sidekick
Each book has exactly one hero, and it is the child holding it. No sharing a spine, no arguing about whose book it really is, no younger sibling working out that they were the supporting character.
Twins get different books, not the same book twice
Same birthday does not mean same kid. You fill in the details separately, so the stories, the adventures and the illustrations come out different even when the ages match exactly.
20% off the second book
Use the code SIBLING20 at checkout. It works on any book after the first, whether you order them together or come back for the second one at Christmas.
A four-year-old and a nine-year-old get different books
Reading level, sentence length and plot complexity are set per child. A shared book has to pick one age and disappoint the other; two books do not.
Two books we made for real kids
Same five-minute process, completely different books. Every page below was generated from scratch for one specific child.

Gianna's Golden Ball Adventure
A garden quest full of wonder, friendship, and a small bit of magic only Gianna could spot.

Questions parents actually ask
Can you put both of my children in one book together?
No. Every book stars a single child, because the illustrations are generated from that one child's photos so the character on the page resembles them. Adding a second child would mean a second likeness on every page, and in practice one of them ends up as the friend rather than the hero. We would rather make two books that each child owns completely.
We have twins. Do we get two nearly identical books?
Only if you describe them identically. You fill in the form once per child, so if one twin is obsessed with sharks and the other with building things, you get a shark story and a building story. Same age, same day, two genuinely different books.
Can my child's brother or sister at least be mentioned in the story?
Yes, in the text. Put something like "has a little brother called Max who follows her everywhere" in the favourites or details box and the story can weave that in. Be aware it affects the words only: the illustrations are generated from the photos you upload, so the pictures show the one child whose book it is.
Do I have to order both books at the same time?
No. The SIBLING20 code is not tied to a single order, so plenty of parents make one book for a birthday and the second one months later. Nothing expires and nothing has to be bought as a pair.
Is there a discount for three or more children?
The sibling code applies to every book after the first, so a third and a fourth are covered at the same 20% as the second. If you are making books for a whole classroom or a large family, email books@adventuresofbook.com and a real person will sort something out.
