Why we made this

I made this for my son.

I put his face on every page, and we read it with the phone in the other room. Those ten minutes became our favorite part of the day.

Dad and founder, MiniMeBooks

Questions parents ask

Will it really look like my child?

Yes. You check every page, we fix any mistakes, and nothing's final until you approve.

Digital or hardcover?

Digital is a print-ready PDF by email, great anywhere in the world. The hardcover ships free to the US and Canada. Canadian hardcovers ship from the US, so import taxes or a courier fee may be charged at delivery.

What photo should I send?

One clear, well-lit photo of your child's face. No sunglasses or filters.

Can I be in it too?

Yes, free. Add Mom, Dad, Grandma or whoever loves them most, one grown-up or up to four, and pick what your child calls you.

What if I change my mind?

Digital: full refund any time before we email your PDF. Hardcover: full refund any time before you approve your preview. After that, we fix mistakes free, and reprint or refund a damaged or misprinted hardcover.

What happens to our photos?

We use them only for your book and delete them 30 days after delivery, or sooner if you ask.

Does Learn to Talk replace speech therapy?

No. It's playful practice built on what speech therapists teach parents: point, name, wait, repeat. If you're worried, talk to your pediatrician or a speech-language pathologist.

Their first book starts here.

Built for growth: first words, counting, letter sounds, big feelings.
