How to gift a digital storybook
By KidleoBooks · Published 16 October 2026
A digital book can feel less tangible than a wrapped present. With a little preparation it can be just as memorable — and it never gets stuck in the post.
Print it
Every book includes a print-ready PDF. Many print shops can print and bind a short book; at home, a colour printer and a folder work too. A printed copy wrapped with a ribbon makes a lovely unboxing moment.
Read it together
If you live far apart, read the online book together on a video call. Let the child turn the pages and spot their name.
Timing and details
Before you create the book, gather the essentials:
- The child's first name (or nickname) and age
- A rough idea of their look — the parents can help
- The family's reading language
- Whether a pet should appear as a companion
Sharing with the family
Books are private by default. You can share the PDF directly, or create a share link for the online book and turn it off later.
