Frequently Asked Questions

What kind of photo should I upload?

Upload one clear, front-facing photo of your child in good lighting, with their entire face clearly visible. Please include only one child and avoid hats, sunglasses, filters, or screenshots. For the best results, use a high-resolution image that is at least 1200 × 1200 pixels.

Is my child’s photo safe?

We take your child’s privacy seriously. Your child’s photo is used only to create their personalized book. Your child’s photo is retained for 30 days after the order has been delivered and is then deleted from our active systems.

Can I preview and request changes before printing?

Yes. We’ll email your digital preview within 48 hours of your order.  Please review the child’s name, age, dedication, and personalized illustrations carefully and reply within 24 hours of receiving the preview email with any corrections. 

If we do not hear from you, your book will be printed as shown. Once printing begins, changes and refunds are no longer available.

How long does production take?

Once your personalized book is sent to production, production typically takes approximately 5 business days. Please allow approximately 5 additional business days for shipping.

When will my personalized book ship?

Your book will ship after production is complete. You will receive a shipping confirmation and tracking information once your order is on its way.

Please allow approximately 10 business days from the date your book is sent to production for production and delivery.

Can I request a refund?

Yes. You may request a refund within 24 hours of placing your order, provided production has not yet begun.

Email classictalesnme@gmail.com within 24 hours of placing your order and include your ORDER NUMBER in the subject line.

Once production begins, refunds are no longer available because your book is being created specifically for your order.

What if my personalized book arrives damaged?

Because every book is individually personalized, we cannot accept returns or provide refunds once printing begins simply because a customer changes their mind.

However, if your book arrives damaged, please email classictalesnme@gmail.com and include:

  • Your ORDER NUMBER in the subject line
  • A photo of the damaged packaging
  • A photo showing the damage to the book

We will review the issue and work with you to make it right.
