The same characters on every page

A picture book falls apart when the hero changes face from page to page. TuckJoy draws each hero once, as a character, and draws every page from that drawing.

Drawn once

These are three of TuckJoy's ready-made heroes, each drawn once:

Patch the collie, a TuckJoy hero — Patch the collie

Then every page from that drawing

And these are pages of a book they are in. Look at the raincoats, the hair, the teddy bear:

Posy crawling out of a blanket fort, Bobby behind her with his teddy bear — Page 4 · The blanket fort

Posy and Bobby in yellow raincoats on the porch with Patch the collie — Page 6 · Raincoats on

Posy and Bobby splashing through a puddle — Page 8 · The big puddle

Mateo brushing Patch the collie in the laundry room — Page 10 · A brush for Patch

Posy and Bobby running across the park with their kite — Page 16 · Off to the park

Posy and Bobby looking up at their kite caught in an oak tree — Page 18 · Stuck in the oak

Questions

How does TuckJoy keep a character the same on every page?

Each hero is drawn once as a character, from your photo or from one of TuckJoy's ready-made heroes. Every page of the book is then drawn from that character drawing, so the face, hair and clothes stay the same.

Can a book have more than one character?

Yes. A paid book can make up to 3 new heroes from photos, free, and bring back any hero already on your account. Your free book has one hero.

Can I use the same hero in my next book?

Yes. Sign in and every hero you make is kept on your account, ready for your next book at no extra cost.

TuckJoy is for anyone making something illustrated: bedtime stories and family keepsakes, gifts for a birthday or an anniversary, comics, cards, invitations and brochures.
