Pet Storybook template

Your pet in a classic fairy tale

Fairy-tale Classic borrows the look of golden-age book illustration: fine ink lines, muted washes and a decorative border feel. Your pet becomes the brave hound, the clever cat or the loyal steed of their own tale.

It suits quest stories and keepsakes meant to last, the kind of book that gets read to the next generation.

Muted colours and pen line give the book an antique, keepsake quality.

Readable at bedtime

Calm palettes make it a good wind-down book for young children.

How it works

Step by step

1
Upload their photos
One clear photo is enough; three is best: the face at eye level, a full body from the side, and any distinctive marking. iPhone photos are fine.
2
Tell us about them
Their name, a story theme, and up to three details that make them who they are: what they love, a silly habit, their best friend.
3
Pick an art style
Compare styles side by side, from Storybook Watercolour to Old Master Portrait. Penwrite suggests one for your theme.

Questions

Frequently asked

Is it based on a particular illustrator?

No. It describes a general golden-age illustration look, never a named artist, and every picture is generated new for your book.

Can the story have a moral?

Yes. Add a lesson (kindness, courage, sharing) and the story is shaped around it.

Will it really look like my pet?

It draws from your photos rather than a breed list, and describes your pet back to you before illustrating so you can correct anything. Three good photos give the most consistent results across all twelve spreads.

Is the preview free?

Yes, for signed-in users during the free 7-day Pro trial. Making the full book uses a Pro book credit (Pro includes one a month), and downloading or printing needs a paid plan.
