A sample book we made from one photo. The person in it is made up.
Why it works for grandma
Grandparents keep things. A book with grandma inside it, drawn from a real photo and printed on good paper, is the kind of thing that stays on the side table and gets shown to every visitor. Choose a gentle story and a clear recent photo, and it reads like a book made for grandma alone.

More on printing the PDF and choosing the photo.
Does she need a phone or an account?
No. The book opens in any browser from a private link, and the PDF can be printed at home like any other document. There is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for.
Can it be from the grandchildren?
Yes, and it usually is. The photo is of her; the name on every page is hers. Who it is from is a line you write when you send the link.
Grandma doesn’t use a computer. Does that matter?
Not at all. Print the PDF at home or at a print shop and give the pages as a book. Our guide to printing covers paper and binding.
Can the grandchildren give it?
Yes. It makes a good gift from grandchildren: they can pick the story, and the book stars grandma, drawn from one photo.
