For a Retiree
A Personalized Book for a Retiree
Mark a retirement with a book about a life well worked and a family well loved, with the retiree as the star.

A life of work and family, gathered into one keepsake story.
A send-off that is actually personal
Retirement gifts tend to be generic. This one is not. It is a book about the retiree's own family, their own years, and the people who were there for all of it.
Time to read it, at last
Retirement is the season of time. A book is a gift made for it, ready to be read slowly, and read again, with grandchildren on the couch.
Their whole story, their whole family
You bring the family and the moments worth keeping. We shape them into a warm collection of stories that honors the person, not the job.
Ideas to Start With
Every book begins with a moment. Here are a few to spark yours.
A Life in Chapters
The seasons of a long life, each one a short story, the family present through all of them.
The Family They Built
Children, grandchildren, the home they made. A story about what was built outside of work.
What Comes Next
A hopeful look forward at the slower, fuller days ahead, surrounded by the people they love.
Your book begins set to this occasion, with these ideas as starting points. You can change anything.

Take a Look Inside a Finished Book
Every page is written and illustrated, and the same characters carry through the whole book. Read a real one, cover to cover, before you start your own.
