Birthdays, the first day of school, a new baby at home, a wobbly tooth, 15 August: the days a family remembers, retold gently with your child as the hero. Pick an occasion, choose a story idea, add a photo, and the illustrated book starts right away.
Balloons, a homemade cake and a birthday wish that turns into a whole day of surprises.
A new bag, a new bench and the brave first step through the school gate.
Holidays are over, the bag is packed and old friends are waiting at the gate.
A tiny new baby at home and a big brother or sister learning the gentlest kind of love.
A wobbly tooth, a gap-toothed grin and the little visitor who comes when everyone is asleep.
Cardboard boxes, a last look at the old room and the first night in a brand-new home.
Mango afternoons, a train to Nani's house and long days with nothing to do but explore.
Nani's stories, Dadaji's morning walk and a whole day to say thank you to the people who spoil us.
A secret plan, a slightly burnt breakfast and the best hug of the whole year.
Papa's shoulders, a fixed bicycle and a small hero who wants to be just like him.
14 November: Chacha Nehru's red rose, a no-homework day and the children in charge of school.
15 August: the flag going up, marigold petals in the air and a tricolour kite over the rooftops.
New clothes on a hook, sewaiyan on the stove and a home full of cousins, Eidi and hugs.
Haldi on the cheeks, a dhol in the lane and a small hero with the biggest job at the big fat family wedding.
Wobbly wheels, a scraped knee, a ringing bell and the first time the hand on the seat lets go.
A photo on the shelf, a sapling in the garden and the gentle ways a child learns to keep someone close after goodbye.
A cold January morning, the tricolour rising on a rope, jalebi in a paper cone and a child who learns what the flag stands for.
A window seat, chai in a clay cup, fields rushing past and the long whistle that tells a child the adventure has begun.
Finished, published storybooks families already created from these ideas.
