How StoryStarling Works

Step 1

Create Your Story Preview

Tell us your idea, pick a style, add characters, and choose a language. We'll create a preview for you to review - for free.

• Tell your story idea – Describe the adventure you imagine for your child - a few sentences is enough.
• Choose an illustration style – Pick the visual style you love most from our hand-curated options.
• Add your characters – Upload photos of people, pets, or objects to include in the story.
• Choose your language – Pick a main language and, optionally, a second one for a bilingual book.

You can create as many previews as you like - until everything feels just right.

Step 2

Generate the Full Book

Generate and read the complete book before you decide on print.

• Booklet – Lightweight printed booklet for everyday reading.
• Hardcover – Durable premium hardcover for gifts and keepsakes.
• Generate the full book – No payment needed at this step — our AI writes the story and creates beautiful illustrations for every page.

You can relax and check back in about an hour — you’ll be able to read the whole book before ordering.

Step 3

Review & Request Unlimited Changes

Flip through every page. Anything you'd like to change - illustrations, text, characters, scenes - just ask. As many revisions as you want.

Request as many changes as you'd like - until every illustration and detail feels just right.

Step 4

Approval and Print

Once you approve, we'll print and ship your book straight to your door.

Once you approve, we'll take care of the rest and deliver your book right to your door!
