Common questions

Can I see the story before paying to print?+
Yes — every order includes a full digital preview. You review and approve the story and illustrations before we send anything to print. If you're not happy, we revise it.
How long does printing take?+
Digital PDFs are available immediately after approval. Print books take 3–5 business days to produce, then 5–10 days to ship depending on your location.
Can I order extra copies later?+
Yes. Once approved, you can order additional copies at a discounted rate from your library. Perfect for grandparents.
What ages are books suitable for?+
Stories are calibrated for children aged 2–12. You tell us your child's age during the questionnaire and the language, themes and complexity adjust accordingly.
What if I want changes after approval?+
Each tier includes 3 revision rounds before approval. After printing begins, we cannot modify the physical book — but you can order a new revised edition anytime.
Is there a subscription?+
No. Every StoryKid book is a one-time purchase. You pay once, you get a book. No recurring charges, ever.
What is the audiobook add-on?+
For $10, we narrate your child’s story as a downloadable MP3 audiobook. Record a 60-second voice sample and our AI clones your voice to read every page — or choose from template voices in 29 languages. Perfect for bedtime stories in a parent’s or grandparent’s voice.
