What makes Selfarama Books so special?
We compare Selfarama books to your-name-in-a-story and photobook options
Selfarama books aren't just fluff and fun like name-in-a-story formats. They're a way to share culture and memories with the next generation.
Unlike name-in-a-story books, the illustrations in a Selfarama book really look like you. It's not just a silly avatar.
And because it's non-fiction, it works for all ages.
A timeless keepsake – without all the hassle of creating a photobook.
