IlluStory Make Your Own Story Kit


Want to get your kids’ creative juices flowing? The IlluStory Make Your Own Story Kit winner of multiple awards, including Family Life’s Best Learning Toy Award and the Oppenheim Toy Portfolio Gold Seal Award is sure to do it!

This kit is sure to bring out the best of your child’s creativity even if they aren’t fond of writing or drawing. The kit includes instructions, creative writing tips, paper and markers for adding illustrations adding up to one great story. But the fun doesn’t stop there, the best part is that your child can send his completed story to the company, and he can become a “published” author as the company will put his words into professional typesetting, bind the book in a hard cover, and return it to him. Imagine the look on your child’s face when he sees his completed published literature! What a great way to encourage literacy.

These books not only look quite authentic they also include an “About the Author” page, title and a dedication page. Your child’s cover art is laminated on the front, along with the title of his book and his name. It’s pretty safe to assume he’ll be showing his masterpiece off to friends and family for quite some time.

The kit sells for $19.95 which includes publishing one copy of your child’s book. More copies of his book can be purchased at an additional fee for grandparents, other relatives or friends. Only one book can be created from a single kit. Refills are not available. So don’t be surprised if your child wants to write another boo. If he does you’ll have to purchase another kit.

For young ones, the IlluStory Make Your Own Story Kit is a great tool for encouraging writing and art skills. For parents and grandparents, it gives you a beautiful keepsake to treasure for years to come.
