A christening gift with their own name

Give a children's book where the baby is the hero. You pick a style, describe the characters and share an idea. Fanteri makes an illustrated book the family can read for years.

Make the gift

Why a personalised book?

  • Nobody else has it: The story and illustrations are made for one child. You won't find it in any shop.
  • It gets kept: Toys disappear. A book with their name stays on the shelf and gets read again as they grow.
  • It grows with them: First it's a read-aloud book. Later it's one they read themselves.

How to make it

  1. Pick a style: Watercolour, hand-drawn or 3D, for example.
  2. Describe your characters: The baby, and maybe siblings, parents or a pet.
  3. Share your story idea: Pick the age range and language, then share your idea. A sentence is enough, but the more you share, the closer Fanteri lands to what you're picturing. You can edit any of the text afterwards.
  4. The magic happens: Keep the page open while Fanteri puts your book together. After about 5 minutes, it's done.

Ready for the big day

Order the book printed, as a hardcover or booklet, straight from your library. It's 21 × 28 cm with 30 pages. Delivery usually takes 6–8 business days, so order well before the christening.

Questions about the gift

Can I make the book if I'm not a parent?

Yes. Lots of books are made by godparents, grandparents, aunts and uncles. All you need is the name and a description of what the child looks like.

Which age range suits a baby?

Choose 0–2. The book then gets short sentences made for reading aloud to the very youngest.

Will the printed book arrive in time?

Making the book takes under 10 minutes. The printed copy usually arrives in 6–8 business days. If time is short, give the digital book first and send the printed one after.

Can I change the book before ordering?

Yes. You can rewrite the text on every page and swap up to 3 illustrations until it feels right.
