AI children's book

An AI children's book for your child: how it's made and what you see before you pay

You describe your child and give an idea, and AI writes a story that has never existed and paints it page by page. Because you can't judge that from a promise, you read the whole story first, for free, and only then decide whether to buy.

Ligne claire illustration of a children's book scene: clean outlines and flat colours

One of the illustration styles: ligne claire

Read the whole story for free

All 14 double pages, the hero and the cover are yours to see before you buy: you only pay if you love the story.

Photo optional

A short description is enough for a lovely hero. Whether you add a photo is up to you. GDPR-compliant.

Illustration styles to choose from

Many styles from the picture-book tradition, from watercolour to ligne claire, kept from the first page to the last.

How it works

From your description to a finished picture book

The story is written from what you tell us: a short description of each character, the idea for the adventure, and if you like a title and a message the story should carry gently, such as friendship or courage. The text runs over all 14 double pages, and you can edit it or ask for a different wording before you pay anything.

The characters each get a precise character sheet before the first picture is painted: face, hair, clothes, height next to the others. Every page is illustrated from that sheet, so the hero looks the same from the first page to the last. A photo is optional; a description is always enough.

The illustrations come in one of 21 styles, from watercolour to ligne claire, and the style stays the same throughout the book. If the style you have in mind isn't listed, you describe it in your own words.

What AI does and what you decide. AI writes the text and paints the pictures. You decide the idea, the characters and the style, you read the whole story before paying, you confirm your characters once after buying, and you can rewrite any page or have any picture repainted in the finished eBook.

Your data. What goes to the AI models is the creation request: the description of the characters, the story idea, the style and, if you sent one, the photo. Your email address, payment details and delivery address are not passed on. Under the contract terms of OpenRouter and the model operators, your input and the content created are not used to train AI models. The details are in our privacy policy.

Questions

Good to know

What is an AI children's book?

A children's book whose story and illustrations are created for one child with the help of artificial intelligence, from your description, instead of from a ready-made template. At Sagalino the text is written from your characters and your idea, and every page is painted in the style you chose.

How do the characters look the same on every page?

Before the first picture, every character gets a character sheet with face, hair, clothes and height. All pages are then illustrated from that sheet. If a picture doesn't suit you, you can have it repainted in the finished eBook.

Is my input used to train AI models?

No. Under the contract terms of OpenRouter and the model operators, your input and the content created are not used to train AI models. Your email address, payment details and delivery address are not passed on to the models.

Can I read the book before I pay, and what does it cost?

Yes. You read the whole story over all 14 double pages for free. The eBook then costs £4.50. The hardcover costs £37.90 plus £5.90 delivery to the United Kingdom, and the eBook is fully credited if you bought it first.
