01What can I see before paying?

You approve the child’s illustrated character first, then review personalized story pages. You can go ahead as soon as the first page is ready, and the others finish while you look.

02Why does a personalized story matter?

Their character is directed to belong in an authored story, turning the reading experience into something they can recognize as theirs.

03What makes Lumi different?

Lumi begins with an authored story world, creates a character inspired by your child, and lets you approve that character plus three personalized pages before payment. The finished story is made as a real hardcover.

04Will it look like a generic template?

The character is created to fit the selected story’s visual world, not pasted onto a stock body. One focused character correction is included before approval.

05What photo do I need?

One clear, front-facing photo is enough. It is used to create the character, then deleted after character approval; the character sheet is used for later pages.

06What is included in the price?

A book is CA$69 in Canada and US$49 in the United States, made as a real hardcover. Shipping is 4.99 for one book, 7.99 for two, and 10.99 for three or more to the same address, in the same currency as your order.
