Create Custom Storybooks in Gemini App.

Google has launched an imaginative new feature in its Gemini app called Storybook, allowing anyone to generate a custom illustrated storybook with audio narration using just a short prompt. Whether for bedtime stories, educational content, or creative fun, Gemini can now bring stories to life in seconds.

Storytelling Meet Gemini Creativity.

Gemini’s Storybook feature uses the latest advances in its Gemini 2.5 models to produce 10-page stories including text, illustrations, and voice narration. You simply enter a prompt like “Tell a story about a dragon who learns to share,” and Gemini generates a complete narrative. You can specify styles from pixel art and comics to claymation or coloring book, and even upload personal images or artwork for inspiration. The system then builds a visually rich story, often narrated in a child-friendly voice.

Storybooks are crafted in over 45 languages and built to be universal. Each story can be customized via an interactive interface: browse story pages, edit text, change styles, and listen to the AI narration. Once finalized, users can download the story as a PDF or grab a shareable link for family and friends.

It is useful to:

• Help your child understand a complex topic: Create a story that explains the solar system to your 5-year-old.
• Teach a lesson through storytelling: Teach a 7-year-old boy about the importance of being kind to his little brother. My son loves elephants, so let’s make the main character an elephant.
• Bring personal artwork to life: Upload an image of a kid's drawing and modify this example prompt for your use case: "This is my kid’s drawing. He’s 7 years old. Write a creative storybook that brings his drawing to life.”
• Turn memories into magical stories: Upload photos from your family trip to Paris and create a personalized adventure.

This feature is clearly aimed at families, educators, and creators who want accessible storytelling tools. Google suggests use cases like explaining complex topics to children, teaching virtues via personalized tales, or turning a family photo into a magical narrative setting. It’s a powerful blend of personalization and creativity.

Google’s Storybook feature showcases how generative AI can redefine creative expression for everyday users. Whether you're a parent, teacher, or storyteller, it enables custom-illustrated content with minimal effort. With global availability and support for dozens of languages, it’s poised to become a popular tool for education, creativity, and family-safe entertainment.
