About the book

Welcome to the World is a fantastic introduction to the wonderful and sometimes strange world that your new human has been born into. 

Young eyes will love seeing the vibrant colors and shapes while toddlers will enjoy recognizing their favorite friendly animals. 

It is also a book created with new parents in mind. Grown-ups will enjoy reading the simple text aloud to their little ones and find an inspiring message to cherish themselves.

Created for little heroes, whatever their origins

When creating the book, you can choose your little one’s skin and hair color as well as dress them up in one of four cuddly animal outfits. 

To make the gift extra special, you can also choose your hero’s parents, be they Mommy and Daddy, two Mommies, two Daddies, just Mommy or just Daddy. Every family can feel welcome in this world.

About the illustrator

Meet Nick – the man behind many of Librio’s most beloved illustrations. He’s been drawing since he could hold a pencil and never stopped (even when he probably should’ve been doing his homework). Based in Cologne with his wife, two almost-grown kids, and his beloved whippet Lulu, Nick lives and breathes creativity. Before joining Librio, he ran a letterpress design studio and a greeting card company—so you could say he’s been spreading joy on paper his whole life.

About us

Librio began with our founder Ed's wish to give his daughter the most special gift imaginable—a story made just for her. That spark grew into a mission: to help families everywhere create unforgettable personalized books while giving back to the planet and society. Since 2017, we’ve crafted over half a million stories, planted just as many trees, and shared the joy of reading through the charity program "Room to Read" with children around the world.
