Absolutely incredible!!! Especially since I recently tried using the competitive stick figure almost cartoon love book that was not only 3x more expensive but an absolute disaster! This book turned out more than perfect! Surpassed value alongside quality! Excellent choice in a special personalized gift.

Found Love Tales after seeing overpriced competitors. The questions to uploading your photos was very easy. The book came out so great with the story and illustrations. I wanted something changed in the story and the process to fix it was so easy. Thank you for all your help.

What is the occasion?
TL;DR
- Three books cover most parents: one for mom, one for dad, and one that tells the story of the two of them.
- Each has 10 illustrated chapters written from the memories you share, with your parents drawn from their photos.
- You can make it alone, add your siblings so it comes from all of you, or create it on behalf of young children.
- You preview the whole book before paying, and you can edit the text as often as you like.
What are personalized books for parents?
Personalized books for parents are illustrated books written about your own mother, your own father or both, using memories only your family has. You answer a few questions and add a photo, and Love Tales writes and illustrates 10 chapters with your parents as the characters.
That is the difference with a name printed on a mug or a frame. A personalized gift for parents in book form has room for the stories: the phrase she always says, the joke he will never retire, the house you grew up in.
Which book for which parent
The three books share the same format and differ in whose story they tell. Choose by who should be at the center of it.
A gift for parents from kids of any age
A gift for parents from kids means something different at thirty-five than it does at five, and the books handle both. Grown children usually write alone or add their siblings, so the book arrives signed by everyone.
For young children, the other parent creates the book on their behalf and adds up to four kids as characters. Ask each child one question and keep the answer word for word. Those lines are the ones your partner will read aloud for years.
- From one child: your own memories, in your own words.
- From all the siblings: add up to three brothers and sisters so it comes from the whole family.
- From little ones: a parent sets it up and the children appear in the illustrations.
When to give it
Parents rarely ask for anything, so most occasions work. A book about the two of them is a natural anniversary gift for parents, especially for a milestone year. A book for one of them suits a birthday, a retirement or the year they become grandparents.
It also solves the yearly Christmas gift for parents problem, because it is the one present they do not already own. If you are shopping for May or June, the Mother's Day and Father's Day editions are built for those dates.
What makes it a keepsake
A keepsake book for parents works when it could not be about anyone else. Three choices get you there.
- Write memories, not compliments. "You drove four hours to bring me soup" is a chapter. "You are the best mom" is a card.
- Pick moments, not eras. Ten small scenes say more than a summary of forty years.
- Put yourself in it. They want to read what it was like to be their child.
What is included with every book
Every book has 10 illustrated chapters, a dedication page and artwork in one of four styles. The digital book is ready about ten minutes after you finish your story, and a printed copy can be shipped to their door or yours.
- Unlimited text edits: rewrite any line until it sounds like you.
- 30 illustration regenerations: adjust outfits, poses, backgrounds and likeness.
- Preview before you buy: you see the whole book first.
Questions
Personalized books for parents, your questions answered
It is an illustrated book written about your own mother, father or both, from memories you share. Love Tales turns your answers and a photo into 10 chapters with your parents as the characters, as a digital book or a printed keepsake.
Give your parents the one gift they do not already have
Personalized books for parents work because nobody else could have written them. Choose the book for mom, the book for dad or the story of the two of them, share a few memories, and preview the result before you decide.
