As seen on

A reading journey that starts with your child’s world.

Our personalized phonics books are designed to do one thing: help your child fall in love with learning to read.

Each book:

  • Uses photos uploaded from your phone to create images that feels familiar and exciting.
  • Follows a blended phonics method aligned with the Science of Reading.
  • Builds essential skills step by step, across 4 progressive volumes.
  • Is crafted for children ages 4–6, ideal for preschool, kindergarten, and first grade.

Because kids read what they love.

When children see their own faces and their own life reflected in a book, everything changes.

They engage more.
They laugh out loud.
They ask to read it again (and again).

This is personalized learning at its most powerful—combining emotion, relevance, and research-backed phonics instruction.

It’s the perfect blend of heart and science.
