Question 1

How do personalized bedtime stories work?

Accepted Answer

You upload a photo of your child, pet, or family member, answer a few fun questions about theme and tone, and Tellspinners uses AI to write and illustrate a custom story with them as the hero. You can read it online, download a PDF, and keep it forever.

Question 2

Can I use my child's photo?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Photos are used only during story creation to build a text description for consistent illustrations. We do not store your original photos — see our For Parents page for full details.

Question 3

Are the stories downloadable?

Accepted Answer

Yes. Every finished story includes a storybook PDF you can download. Paid plans also include a coloring-book PDF and optional read-aloud narration.

Question 4

Can I print the stories?

Accepted Answer

Yes. The PDF is designed for home printing or professional print shops. Many families print favorites for bedtime shelves or gifts.

Question 5

Are the stories safe for kids?

Accepted Answer

Stories are moderated for family-friendly content, written for gentle bedtime reading, and you review everything before sharing. We are ad-free and built for parents.
