StorySafari — Your child is the author. Most kids grow up reading other people's stories. StorySafari turns the stories in their head into books they can hold. We built this app on the belief that creation is education. In under a minute, your child can publish their own illustrated storybook — starring themselves, their best friend, the family dog, and a world they dreamed up at breakfast. What your child can create - Their own books, from scratch. They pick the characters, the setting, and the adventure. Every story is one-of-one. - Themselves as the hero. Upload a photo and your child becomes an illustrated character on every page. - A cast from real life. Add siblings, grandparents, friends, pets — the people and creatures your child actually loves. - Stories that grow with them. Vocabulary and complexity scale from preschool picture books to chapter-style adventures, ages 3–10. - Original illustrations, every time. No stock art — every page is illustrated for that specific story. - From screen to shelf. Turn any story your child creates into a real, printed hardcover, shipped to your door. Why creating beats consuming Reading builds comprehension. Creating builds vocabulary, narrative reasoning, emotional intelligence, problem-solving, and identity. Kids who tell stories learn to make sense of the world — they don't just absorb it. That's why "creation is education" isn't a tagline for us; it's the whole product. Made for the moments that matter Five minutes before bed. A long car ride. A rainy Saturday. StorySafari turns ordinary moments into ones your child will remember — and gives parents an easy way to bond, entertain, and inspire, all at once. Download StorySafari and let your child write the story. ## Key features - Personalized stories for children - Customizable characters and settings - Stories for various ages and reading levels - Illustrated and interactive tales - Diverse genres including fantasy and learning - New stories added regularly ## Pricing and in-app purchases Base price: Free. **Subscriptions** | Subscription | Price | Period | | --- | --- | --- | | Explorer | $5.99 | per month | | Adventurer | $9.99 | per month | | Adventurer | $9.99 | per month | | Explorer | $5.99 | per month | | Monthly | $6.99 | per month | | Yearly | $24.99 | per year | ## Recent user reviews (10 of 15) All indexed reviews: https://appshunter.io/ios/app/storysafari-stories-for-kids/id6451466436/reviews.md ### 5/5 — Love making stories! *2026-08-16* My kids have so much fun creating characters and stories and worlds in the app. The printed books are a sweet and personal gift too! ### 5/5 — So fun *2026-07-21* We couldn’t believe how easy it was to make a book of my daughter and print out a copy we can read every night. ### 5/5 — My kids love making their own stories! *2025-06-01* This app is so much fun for the kids.
