PrepTale: Picture Book Maker

Create a personalized, illustrated read-aloud that helps your child know what may happen during a new experience. PrepTale is a parent-guided picture book maker for families preparing for unfamiliar routines, transitions, and first experiences. Choose an upcoming situation—such as starting a new class, visiting a dentist, getting a haircut, taking a trip, sleeping independently, moving home, welcoming a new sibling, or meeting a new pet. HOW IT WORKS 1. Choose a real-life situation and your child's age range. 2. Answer 3–5 focused questions about what may happen. 3. Select Girl, Boy, or Gender-neutral artwork, then choose an original picture-book character. 4. Review and edit every page before final illustrations and narration are created. 5. Read or listen together, then save the finished book for later. MADE FOR PARENT-GUIDED PREPARATION - Parent review first: edit every page of the 6–8 page story before final pictures and narration are created. - Honest, calm language: no promises that a procedure will not hurt and no pressure to be “brave” or stop crying. - Personalized stories: focused answers shape the setting, people, sequence, and reassuring details. - Consistent characters: one reference design guides every page in the book. - Read-aloud narration: every page includes warm, natural-sounding audio. - Save and revisit: keep the completed book on your device, export a long image, or print a parent-approved copy. INCLUSIVE BY DESIGN Choose from 25 original protagonists across varied skin tones and hair textures—10 Girl, 10 Boy, and 5 Gender-neutral—with no ethnicity labels or gender-role assumptions. PRIVATE BY DEFAULT - No child account. - No advertising or third-party analytics. - Finished books stay on your device unless you choose to export or share them. YOUR FIRST BOOK IS INCLUDED Your paid download includes one completed personalized picture book. Additional completed books are available as in-app purchases. A book credit is used only after all final illustrations and narration tracks are ready. PrepTale is not a medical, mental-health, or education diagnostic tool. Real procedures and safety decisions remain with parents, guardians, and qualified professionals.
