A Personalized Ballet Book: Your Child Is the Hero

Ribbons tied, music rising, curtains trembling: tonight the spotlight is looking for one small dancer in particular.

We fill in the story idea for you. You can change every word.

Every page of your book is drawn in one of 10 art styles. These samples were created with LittleReaders, exactly as your pages will be.

First position is easy. The tricky part is the wobbly pirouette that will not cooperate on Tuesday but must shine on Saturday. Your child rehearses, tumbles, giggles and tries again, and when the curtain finally rises, the leap lands exactly like it always did in the living room. The audience is on its feet.

Your child dances through every illustration, drawn from your photo in the art style you pick, name on the program cover. A sibling can join the ensemble. The book arrives digitally in about half an hour, with a printed softcover ready for the after-show bouquet.
