We make two kinds of book, and they ship on different timelines. Which one you’re buying is shown clearly on every product page.
📦 In-stock books
Ready to make and send straight away.
- Hand-stitched in 1–5 business days, then dispatched with tracking
- Available in Berry Blossom, Fairy Garden, Bear Adventure and Wild Safari
✨ Pre-order books
Our newest designs, made in small batches. Reserving one holds your place in the batch.
- Each pre-order has its own ship date, shown on that book’s page — look for “Pre-Order — ships [date]” just above the Add to Cart button
- You’re charged when you order, which is what reserves your slot
- We email you with tracking the moment it ships
- Ordering a pre-order and an in-stock book together? They ship separately, each with its own tracking
Production time
Every book is hand-cut, sewn and finished in-house. Nothing is mass-produced, and nothing is stitched by machine.
Production runs are deliberately small — once a batch fills, the next opens 4–6 weeks later.

Our promise on returns
Because every book is hand-stitched with your child’s name, we can’t resell it — so we’re unable to offer refunds once production has started.
What we do offer: free revisions on any personalization mistake. Wrong spelling, wrong date, wrong theme — tell us and we’ll put it right, at no cost to you.
If something arrives damaged or isn’t what you ordered, email support@littleonepress.com and we’ll sort it out. We reply within 24 hours.
