Parent-led picture books

Make the book about this week.

First day of school. New baby. Bedtime fears. Whatever your kid is living through this week, turn it into a picture book starring them, shaped by your voice and approved by you.

Invite-only while the workshop is small. Parent codes control access to the book desk.

Books written for one kid, in one moment.

Each book here was built around a real lesson, a real big day, or a real kid's obsession. The same tools are now waiting for yours.

Security and control

The parent stays in charge.

TinyShelf is built as a parent-facing workshop: controlled access, visible drafts, and no kid-facing prompt box.

Private authoring

Creating and editing books requires a parent invite code. Kids do not need accounts, prompts, or access to the production desk.

You control the AI

The assistant only works from the brief, characters, style notes, and revisions you provide. You can inspect every spread before sharing the reader link.

Share on purpose

Finished books are simple reader links for family review. Drafting stays behind the code; sharing is a parent decision.

Workshop flow

Creative control without giving up oversight.

TinyShelf should feel like a small publishing desk, not a prompt box. Every screen keeps the next production decision, review pass, and share decision close.

01

Set the house style

Palette, line quality, texture, age range, and print constraints live in one reusable style note.

02

Cast the tiny stars

Create character sheets and portraits first, then reuse those references across every generated spread.

03

Build the book page by page

Write the visible text, add art direction, generate, revise, and flip through the book like the final object.
