Sample pages
One sentence in, a whole world to color out.
Every page below began as a single sentence — bold outlines, plenty of room to color, and a friendly character waiting on each one. Each book is drawn fresh; these are samples.
Colored in
And here’s the part the crayons live for.
You print the clean outlines above — the coloring is the fun part. Here are a few of the same kind of pages after a kid (or a grown-up) filled them in. There’s no “right” way to do it; the page is theirs to color however they like.

The printed keepsake
A real book, starring the character only your kid would dream up.
The sample page is just the spark. The book is the whole story — bound and printed, written around your kid’s idea, with pages to color and activities to do, made just for them.
- A story of their own. Their idea becomes the main character, page after page.
- More than coloring. Mazes and dot-to-dots mixed in, and word searches once they’re reading.
- Made to keep. Bound and finished cleanly on uncoated paper that takes crayon.
- Printed when you order. Mailed to your door, ready to gift or keep.
