Your story can become a book too

A studio for children who write. From the first page in the notebook to the printed book.

Start a story How it works

Who writes the book

The children! Not us, and not the AI.

Every story you send is accompanied personally, step by step, all the way to the book.

The original staysThe manuscript is kept exactly as written, and never changes.
We ask, we don't fixWhen something is unclear, the author gets a question. The decision stays theirs.
Not knowing is allowed"I don't know" and "I want this to stay a mystery" are good answers.
Art by the authorWe illustrate to your brief, and after every sketch you can send refinements. A picture is worth a thousand words.

The journey from idea to book

Five steps. From the idea to sending to print can take just days, and at every step the child decides.

1
The ideaA day to a week, up to youA story in a notebook, a file or a photo. Send it, and we read all of it.
2
The writingA day or twoWe go over what you sent. Spelling fixes on one side; on the other, questions only the author can answer.
3
Questions for the authorA few minutesIf something is unclear, we ask the right questions. Up to six, and the answers stay in the child's own words.
4
The artSame dayFrom defining the heroes to the full illustrations and the cover, together with you: three or four rounds of prompt refinements, and along the way you learn to create well with AI.
5
The bookUp to 3 weeks from sending to printA digital edition and an author page right away, and within three weeks the first ten printed copies are in your hands.

Our vision

To let children turn an idea, a story or a manuscript into a finished work they are proud of, and learn along the way how to write, choose, critique, improve and work well with AI.

Your story can become a real book, and you remain its author.

We believe that in the coming years human writing will become a rare and sought-after genre, and whoever learns to nurture it today will hold something no machine can write for them.

We make dreams come true for children who want to be authors, or just to write one book. The child does not just get a product: they get ownership, visibility, readers and a path to the next book. That is how the troop was born, around Shira's book.

What we are not

Not a publisher that picks manuscripts.
Not a print shop that takes a file and prints it.
Not a generator that writes a child's story at the push of a button.
Not an open social network for children.

What we are

A troop of young authors, and a studio that accompanies each of them: from the notebook, through the questions and illustrations, to a book published under the name of the child who wrote it.

We are waiting for you. Join the troop.

How Shira's book was born

The Library of Things That Never Happened

The first book

Shira, our first author

Shira Drori, 11, wrote a book called "The Library of Things That Never Happened". Instead of correcting her story we sent her six questions. She answered every one, and stopped us where she disagreed. The book that came out is hers, from the first sentence to the last. That is how it all began.

Voices from the first book

No commissioned reviews and no stars — only the real quotes from Shira's journey, as they happened.

„It still sounds like me.”
Shira, age 11
After the editing round — the sentence without which we don't move on to illustrations
„Fix spelling and grammar without ruining her voice — don't add or change too much.”
Shira's parent
The request that became the rules of the whole studio
„You are the author, so the library's rules are yours.”
From the team, to Shira
From the message with the six author questions

The next line here is reserved for the next author.

Stories by young creators

Every book here was written by a child, and came out under their name.

Stories that cross languages

Every book is written in its author's language, and our dream is that it won't stop there: a girl in Italy reading a book by a boy from Israel, and a child here reading a story that came from far away.

The studio works in Hebrew, Arabic and English, and more languages will follow.

What you should know

Four things every parent asks before their child starts writing with us.

A human editorA real person reads, asks and accompanies every step — not a machine on its own.
No gradesNobody scores the story or corrects it in red pen. This is not homework.
Private until you say soThe book stays in until the parents say it goes out.
No identifying detailsNo school, city, address or birth date is collected, and a reader cannot reach the child.

Three steps on the way to a book

Each step is a destination of its own. Stop wherever suits you.
