The signature experience
Watch it come to life
Every Shalom Tales order includes a moment we designed for parents, grandparents, and bubbes — a gentle Jewish story painting itself on screen while a little one watches over your shoulder. Right after you order, the book appears page by page in about two minutes.
The cover fades in first. Then each page slides into view with a gentle sweep,
the characters appearing as if drawn in real time. The child sees their own name
on every spread. It is, by design, a little magical.

Questions answered
Frequently asked questions
Everything you need to know before you order.
What exactly is a Shalom Tales book?
Shalom Tales creates a one-of-a-kind illustrated storybook where your child is the hero of every page. Choose their name, age, a story world drawn from beloved Jewish stories, and a gentle lesson rooted in faith — we craft an original story and illustrate it just for them. Stories are family-friendly and written for Jewish parents and grandparents to gift with confidence.
How old does my child need to be?
Shalom Tales books are designed for children ages 1 to 8. Story length and reading level
are gently tailored to the age you provide — shorter and simpler for toddlers,
richer and more adventurous for 3–4 year olds.
Right after your order is placed, your browser shows the book painting itself on screen
— the cover appears first, then each illustrated page reveals one by one with a gentle
horizontal sweep. The whole reveal takes about two minutes and is yours to watch
as many times as you like before your PDF is emailed to you.
What is the difference between the Keepsake and the Heirloom?
The Keepsake ($24) is a 12-page personalized
digital book — a complete story, beautifully illustrated.
The Heirloom ($39) is a longer 20-page version
with a deeper story arc and more illustrated spreads. Both include the on-screen reveal
and a PDF you keep forever. The Heirloom is the most popular choice for grandparent gifts.
Can I order a printed copy?
Yes. After your digital book is ready you can add a printed keepsake copy
shipped to your door for an additional $29. It arrives as a beautifully bound book —
perfect for bedtime reading, gifting, or keeping on the shelf.
Is the content safe and appropriate for young children?
Absolutely. Every Shalom Tales story is wholesome and age-appropriate by design,
built around positive life lessons like kindness, courage, and curiosity.
Nothing scary, nothing inappropriate — guaranteed.
How long does it take to get my book?
Your digital book is created within minutes of ordering. The on-screen reveal plays
the moment your book is ready, and your PDF is emailed to you shortly after.
Printed copies ship within a few business days.
