Printed books that bring their wins off-screen

    Turn what your child is learning into a real book they can hold. Each printed story stars your child and the skill they're working on, so the progress keeps going at bedtime, on the couch and anywhere a screen isn't.

    How Nookly works

    Beyond a single story, get a Nookly subscription

    Step one

    First, Nookly gets to know the child.

    Before anything is made, you tell Nookly who this child actually is — how they look, who lives in their house, the friends and pets they talk about, and what they are obsessed with this month. Everything Nookly creates later is built from this one profile.

    Set up once. Reused in everything after.
