Read the price comparisonPricing Questions
What does a Little Hero Book cost in total?
$34.99 for the book, plus shipping: $8.24 to the United States and $6.65 to Australia. That is the whole total at checkout. There is no subscription and nothing else added at the end.
Why is it one price instead of tiers?
Every book we print is the same physical product: the same premium hardcover, the same 26 full-color pages, the same illustration quality. A cheaper tier would have to take something out of that book, and there is nothing in it we would want to remove.
Do I pay before I see the book?
Yes. Generating a full illustrated book costs us real money in AI image generation, so payment comes first, and the book is generated straight after. You then get the editor: change any text, regenerate any illustration and preview all 26 pages before you confirm the print. Nothing goes to the printer until you approve it.
Is shipping included in the price?
No, shipping is added at checkout so you only pay the rate for your country: $8.24 for the United States and $6.65 for Australia. Both are trackable and arrive in 7 to 11 business days.
Which countries can I order from?
We currently ship to the United States and Australia. If you would like your country added, email contact@littleherobook.com and tell us where you are.
What if the book arrives damaged or misprinted?
Send us a photo within 14 days of delivery at contact@littleherobook.com and we will reprint and reship it free. Because every book is printed to order for one child, books cannot be returned like a normal product, so please review every page in the editor before confirming the print.
Do you offer discounts for several books?
Yes, for bulk and business orders. Schools, clinics, subscription boxes and corporate gifting are handled through our B2B page, and creators who send us customers can earn a commission through the affiliate program.
What payment methods do you accept?
Checkout runs on Stripe and accepts all major credit and debit cards. We never see or store your card details. Prices are charged in US dollars.
