Frequently asked questions
What makes Scribbin books personalised?+
Most personalised books swap a name into a pre-written template. Scribbin writes a brand-new story around your child — who they are, what they love, who joins the adventure — and illustrates it with consistent characters on every page.
How long does it take?+
The creation wizard takes about 5–10 minutes, then the story and illustrations generate in a few minutes more. You can edit as much or as little as you like afterwards.
How much does it cost?+
Creating an account is free and comes with 20 free Story Tokens. Illustrations cost 5 tokens each, so a typical 8-spread picture book uses around 45 tokens — the £5 Starter Pack covers a complete book. Printed copies are priced separately at checkout.
What ages are the books for?+
Scribbin books are written for children aged 0–12. You pick the age range and the story's length, vocabulary and themes are personalised to suit.
Do you ship printed books internationally?+
Yes — printed books ship to most countries worldwide. You'll see shipping options and delivery estimates at checkout.
