The Magic of You - with avatars - print at home

The Magic of You is not just another story for talking about donor conception or surrogacy – it is your story! You and your child (or twins) star in your own unique story. NOTE: This product is only available as a Print At Home book.

Product description

You upload photos of the characters in your story and we create avatar heads for them, then place those onto the illustrations (which we also colour the correct skin tone). Then you change the words to make it your own. The end result is not just a story about IVF or surrogacy, it is your own story.

We have stories suitable for heterosexual, same sex and single parent families – these are all editable.  

The books are aimed at toddlers and pre-schoolers. They have beautiful illustrations and each story has a photo section at the end which is a great place to add cherished photos of donors (if known), surrogates, other children in the family, godparents and others special to you. You print it out at home - most customers pop the pages into a plastic sleeve folder.


Pride Angel: “Thanks to her book Eva Rose can explain quite simply that she has two mums that love her and a donor, Daddy Simon Lee. The book includes wonderfully simple explanations about the process, with lovely illustrations. In short, our book is absolutely amazing, my daughter can’t get enough of it.

As the text can be edited, you can easily translate the book into other languages.

Worldwide shipping is available.
