A real Alf Layla book: “Winston & Albert Traveling”

Layla is 17 months old, so her book has a few words a page, rhyming in Gulf Arabic and in English. It’s drawn in coloured pencil, with Winston and Albert beside her on every page. This is the book as it was made, word for word.

Questions parents ask

How old should my child be?
Any age from a few months to 12. A book for a baby has a few gentle words on each page; a book for an eight-year-old reads like a real adventure.
How long does a book take?
Usually under ten minutes. The words come first, so you can start reading while the pictures are painted.
What does it cost?
$2.50 for a 10-page book and $4.50 for a 20-page book. Your card is charged only once your book is finished, so if it can’t be made you pay nothing. There is no subscription, and changing pictures and words afterwards is included.

$2.50 for 10 pages. You only pay for a finished book.
