How the first page could read
On a warm morning, your child followed three enormous footprints through the ferny valley. At the end of the trail stood a young T-Rex with a wobbly tail and worried eyes. “I want to say hello,” it whispered, “but my roar comes out far too loud.”
Your child’s name, look and little details replace these words, and the whole story is written for their age.
Why this story works
A friendly T-Rex can feel big and exciting without turning the story into a chase. For children aged 3–6, your child takes the helpful role: noticing a worried face, suggesting a quieter greeting and inviting others to join in. The repeated idea that a roar can be followed by a hello gives adults an easy line to read together. Seeing your child illustrated from their photo makes the valley scenes feel personal, while the young dinosaur’s wobbly tail and shy voice keep the mood light. Short, clear moments of kindness suit a shared bedtime read or a pre-school conversation.
Reading it together
- Pause when the T-Rex worries about its roar and ask your child what they would say to help.
- Try reading the T-Rex’s quiet hello and loud roar in two contrasting voices together.
- Use the free cover preview to check that your child looks and feels right before you order.
Suggested art style: Storybook watercolour
Soft watercolour ferns and warm dinosaur expressions keep the T-Rex friendly rather than frightening. A sidekick idea: a shy young T-Rex with a wobbly tail. You can pick any of the four styles and change the details in the form.

Questions
Is the friendly T-Rex scary for younger children?
No. The young T-Rex is worried about making friends, not trying to chase anyone. Its size, tail and roar create gentle comic moments, while your child leads each encounter with a calm hello and a practical idea. The illustrations can be made in your chosen art style.
What can I personalise in this T-Rex story?
You provide one photo of your child, then answer a few questions including their name, age, chosen art style, adventure and little details. Picture to Story uses these to create a 32-page book with 15 illustrated story spreads starring your child. You see the cover before paying.
Can I see the book before I pay?
Yes. Your child’s cover and the first page of the story are made while you answer the questions, usually in under a minute, and you see them before checkout. You only pay if you love it.
How long does it take?
The digital book is usually ready about 10 minutes after you order. Printed books take 3 to 5 working days to print, then 3 to 7 days to post in the UK and US.
