About Us
We’re proudly South African, offering beautifully crafted personalised books in both
Afrikaans and English. Each book is illustrated by local artists, with stunning designs
that make every story feel truly special. These aren’t just books—they’re keepsakes,
meant to be treasured for a lifetime.
Why do families love MyStories?
Because seeing your own name on the cover of a book is something truly special.
And stepping into the pages as the main character? That’s an experience that makes
reading even more exciting.
One of our moms once said:
"I thought it was a simple bedtime story, but it is so much more.
It’s a sense of belonging, a sense of inclusiveness!"
How it works
Ordering is simple! Visit www.mystories.co.za, choose a book, click on
Personalise, and customise the main character’s name and appearance. Add to cart,
complete checkout, and we’ll do the rest! You can even preview all our books on the
website before ordering.
You can choose from our Adventure Range—Safari Adventure, Farm Adventure, or
Sea Adventure—where kids become part of the journey. Or explore books for
multiple characters like The Red Balloon. Our Mommy & Me and Daddy & Me rhyme
books make thoughtful gifts for Mother’s Day, Father’s Day, or special occasions and
can also be personalised for Granny, Grandpa, an uncle, or an aunt. We recently
launched our beautifully designed journals, allowing grandparents to capture their
memories and one day pass them down to their grandchildren.
Our Promise to You
We’ve been creating MyStories books for over four years, and our commitment
remains the same: high-quality, beautifully personalised children’s books that
bring joy to families. Our lead time is currently 10-15 days, and we’re constantly
working to shorten it.
At MyStories, we believe reading is one of the greatest investments you can make in
a child’s imagination. More than just bedtime stories, our books create moments of
joy, laughter, and belonging.
Because every child loves storytime!
