About Personalized Picture Books
This is a custom-made "the child becomes the main character" picture book in which the child's name and birthday can be placed inside the book. Not only the name can be inserted, but also a photo, a message, or various other customizations can be made.
In January 2021, we launched a personalized picture book service, "BUKI (read: boookie)*, a picture book that lets you become the hero of a story," and have created and sold original picture books to date. In this collaboration, we provided the technology platform for personalized picture books.
We will continue to create personalized picture books on various themes that children enjoy, such as vehicles, creatures, characters, etc., and provide picture books that accompany children's emotional growth.
