As a birth or baby shower gift, a Looma book is a 36-page illustrated hardcover in which the baby is the hero, drawn from a few photos, with parents, siblings or grandparents joining as up to 5 characters. The eBook costs €3.99 and the premium hardcover €24.99 on top, printed and delivered in 10 to 14 working days in Europe, in 6 languages. The story is written gently for the very youngest, and you approve every page before printing.
New babies get a lot of soft toys and tiny socks. What they rarely get is something made for them, with their name in it, that still matters in five years. A story that welcomes them by name, next to the people who waited for them, becomes the book parents read aloud long after the onesies are outgrown.
Put the baby at the center, bring in the big brother who can't wait to meet them, add the grandparents from a holiday photo. We write a gentle illustrated story for the youngest readers, you read it and change any line, and the hardcover goes to the new parents' door. A gift that feels personal, whoever gives it.
Unlike a name-only baby book, which prints a first name into a stock story, the baby here is drawn from real photos and the story is written for this family. And unlike a newborn photo album, it is something to read aloud: the photos become scenes of a story the child grows into, rather than pages turned once.

Frequently asked questions
Is a book a good baby shower gift?
It is one of the few shower gifts still around in ten years. Clothes get outgrown and toys get passed on, but a hardcover with the baby and their family inside stays on the shelf.
The baby isn't born yet. Can I still create it?
Yes. You can start the story now with the parents, siblings or grandparents from family photos, or wait for the first newborn photos to bring the baby in. Nothing is printed until you approve every page.
Can the parents and siblings be in the story too?
Yes, up to 5 characters. The whole little family can join: parents, a big brother, a grandmother, even the dog. Each one is drawn from a photo, so they really are in the book.
Printed or digital?
Both. The eBook is ready as soon as you approve the story, so you can share it on the day. The premium hardcover is printed after your approval and can be delivered straight to the new parents.
Can I add a personal message?
Yes. You can edit every sentence of the story, so it is easy to weave in a welcome from the grandparents or a line only the family will understand.
What kind of story suits a newborn?
A gentle one. For the very youngest we keep the sentences short and soft, made to be read aloud by a parent, and the story grows in meaning as the child does.
How much does a personalized birth gift cost?
€3.99 for the eBook, with text edits and up to 12 illustration regenerations included. The premium hardcover is €24.99 on top, plus shipping calculated at checkout. No subscription, no minimum order.
How long does delivery take?
The eBook is ready as soon as the story is approved, so it can be given on the day. The hardcover is printed after approval and delivered in 10 to 14 working days across Europe (5 to 7 days of printing, then 5 to 7 in transit depending on the delivery method). Order about four weeks before the baby shower or the first visit.
