Theo · 7 years old
BedtimeTheo lies awake in bed. Tomorrow is Father's Day, and his surprise feels huge.
He slips out of bed and tiptoes down the hall. The dark house waits quietly.
He places the note on the tray. It says, 'Happy Father's Day, Dad, from Theo.'
Morning light fills the room. Dad finds the tray, lifts Theo high, and beams.
Dads are famously hard to shop for, and a drawing from their kid is one of the few things they never return. A DoodleTale Father's Day book starts from one of those drawings: a portrait of Dad with enormous hands, a lion, a robot, whatever your child put on paper this week. DoodleTale redraws that character as a storybook illustration and writes an original Father's Day story around it, so Dad opens a book whose hero came straight out of his kid's head. Order the printed 8x8 softcover ($29.99, free shipping to the US and Canada) by about June 11 and it arrives before Father's Day on June 21. You can see the character, read the full story, and see the cover before paying anything.

Questions, answered
Take a photo of the drawing with your phone and upload it. DoodleTale turns the character into an illustrated version of itself, writes a Father's Day story around it, and shows you the character, the full story, and the cover free. If you like it, order the printed softcover for $29.99 or the digital edition for $9.99.
Wonderbly and Hooray Heroes insert Dad's name and appearance into a pre-drawn template story. DoodleTale starts from your child's actual drawing, whatever creature or character they invented. That drawing becomes the AI-illustrated protagonist. No two books are the same, because no two drawings are the same.
Yes. Upload a drawing without signing up and you'll see the character, the full story, and the cover free in minutes. Printed softcovers typically arrive within 4-10 days. Order by June 11 for comfortable delivery before Father's Day.
Whatever they want to. Some kids draw Dad himself, with the beard or the glasses or the giant coffee mug they always notice. Others draw an animal or a monster, and that works just as well, since the story is built around whatever character is on the page. Plain paper makes the character easy to pick out in the photo.
$29.99 for the printed 8x8 softcover, which includes the digital copy and ships free in the US and Canada. The digital edition on its own is $9.99. Previewing costs nothing.
Yes. The preview and ordering all happen on your device. You upload the drawing, review the character, and place the order. Dad doesn't need to be involved at any point. The printed book ships directly to your address.
