A birthday can celebrate a single day, but the best gift is all the days that came before it. Created for friends and family to make together, our interactive storytelling experience gathers memories, photos, and heartfelt messages from the people who know someone best. Thoughtful digital prompts help everyone contribute their piece of the story, turning many perspectives into one beautifully printed hardcover book made especially for the guest of honor.
Invite friends and family to contribute memories, stories, photos, and messages through an easy-to-use digital experience. You choose the deadline and you’ll get final approval of everything submitted.
You and your collaborators will share stories, inspired by thoughtful prompts, and add photos using the online portal. You’ll set a deadline to submit contributions, and you can edit content submitted by others.
When it’s ready to publish, you’ll send it to print and select the address to ship the finished book.
