Keep the recognizable details
Patches, colors, stitching, clothing, and well-loved wear can guide the illustrated character.
The toy that already has a whole personality
Give their favorite stuffed animal its own adventure
Start with the toy’s name, the details they love, and one little story idea. DreamPages turns it into an illustrated digital Storybook you can read together.
Your first complete Storybook is included. An account saves it; no card required.
First Storybook included No credit card Parent controlled
The photo demonstration below shows an optional Plus feature. Photo Characters use 1 Storybook Credit; new Storybooks cost credits separately.
Someone they already love
The companion already beside them
Start with one clear photo. It stays private, and we delete it once the illustrated character is ready.
Private by default
From someone they love
Want the pictures to start from a photo?
Photo Characters are a Plus feature and use 1 Storybook Credit. Save the illustrated character, then choose it for a new Storybook. The Storybook uses credits separately.
Ellory is an AI-created demo character and photo, not a customer’s toy.
Ellory and the Thunder Game
Ellory, ready for a story
A parent's guide
Children do not need convincing that a beloved toy is alive
A favorite stuffed animal already has a voice, a history, and a place at bedtime. A story lets the rest of the family step into that little world too.
One photo helps preserve the details a child would notice immediately: the patched ear, the worn fabric, the stitched star, or the ribbon that can never be replaced.
Ellory can make thunder feel friendly tonight, sail a paper sea tomorrow, and still be the same well-loved elephant waiting beside the pillow when the book closes.
Made for your storytime
The companion beside them can lead the adventure

Made for meaningful objects
Stuffed animals, dolls, puppets, toys, drawings, and other companions can become characters.

Ready for any adventure
A familiar toy can lead a cozy bedtime story, a funny mystery, or an entirely new Series.

Questions, answered
What families usually want to know
What kinds of toys can become characters?
Stuffed animals, dolls, puppets, figures, vehicles, drawings, and other clearly photographed objects can all work.
What makes a good source photo?
Use a clear image where one toy is the obvious subject, with the details your child cares about visible.
Does DreamPages keep the source photo?
No. The photo stays private, and it is deleted automatically once the character is drawn. What you keep is the illustrated character.
Can the same toy return in another story?
Yes. Bring the same toy into an entirely new book, or keep their adventures going as a Series.
Can I include the child and the toy together?
Yes. A story can include more than one saved character. Characters made from a person's photo—and every story they appear in—stay private.
Start their companion’s first adventure
Describe a familiar toy to begin your included first Storybook. You can explore photo-based characters separately with Plus.
