Why it works for Hanukkah
Across eight nights, one gift can be the one about the person. A story with someone you love drawn into it is that gift, and because it is digital, it is ready on whichever night you want to give it.

More on printing the PDF and choosing the photo.
Are the stories about Hanukkah?
No. They are adventures and quiet tales: a lamp with golden smoke, a market that appears at night, an egg in the attic. The gift is the person in the story.
Can it be ready for a particular night?
Yes. The book is made after you order, usually within minutes, so order on the day and give it that night. Or order early, tick “It’s a gift”, and choose the evening: we email it to them at the time you pick, with your note.
Can I make one for each grandparent?
Yes. Each book is its own order, with its own photo and story.
Can it be printed?
Yes. The PDF is print quality, for home or a print shop.
