"My name is Jacques, and I founded Kids Custom Stories to boost children's confidence with a new take on books.

​

Growing up, I wasn't the most confident child; I always felt like a bit of an outsider. I remember that in my earlier years, reading books and listening to audiobooks were the only way I could fall asleep.

​

So, as I witnessed the growing influence of highly personalised algorithms from platforms like TikTok leading to decreased reading among children, inspiration struck me. If technology can customise content to individual preferences, why not use a similar principle to enrich rather than limit?

​

From this, the concept for KCS was born: tailor-made, beautifully bound hardcover storybooks that transform each child into the hero of their own tale.

​

These are books that not only entertain but also nurture—boosting confidence, addressing personal challenges, and offering support wherever it’s needed, all completely unique to your child."
