Lumi is the little helper inside Magical Book Maker. Tell Lumi who the book is for and what it’s about, and Lumi writes the story and draws the pictures. You can change anything, page by page.

Yes. Your books stay in your account for as long as you keep it, and reading them is always free. You can download a PDF of any book whenever you like.

Just an idea: who the book is for, how old they are and what the story is about. A photo is optional and only helps us draw them.

English, Spanish, French, German, Turkish, Arabic, Urdu, Hebrew, Chinese and Japanese. A book can also show two languages side by side.

No. A photo you add is used only to draw that picture, then it’s deleted. It’s never saved to your account, your books or your chats.

Only your family. Invite another parent to make books with you, or a grandparent to read them. To share one book, send a private reading link, and turn it off any time.

Open Credits from your account menu to buy a pack or use a code. If you run out while making a book, you can get more right there and carry on where you left off.

Yes. Order a hardcover or paperback right from your book, and we email you when it ships.

Hardcover, paperback, spiral-bound and stapled, in six sizes from square picture books to tall storybooks. You see the price with shipping and tax before you pay.

We ship to most countries. Printing takes a few days, then shipping. You see an arrival estimate before you pay, and we email you when your book is on its way.

Email us as soon as you can. We can usually help before the book goes to the printer, but once printing starts it can’t be changed.

Email support@magicalbookmaker.com with your order number and a photo of the problem, and we’ll sort it out with the printer.

Yes, with a child profile on your device. Kids can read their books, or make books if you allow it, and never see payments or settings. You leave kid mode with a code you choose.

Open Family workspace from your account menu and send an invite. Parents can make and change books with you. Readers, like grandparents, can only read them.
