The book where their name is the one on the cover.

If the book hasn't gone to print, yes, and at no cost. Email support@wildtimecomicsstories.com with your order number as soon as you notice — we can normally catch it within about 4 hours of ordering.

If it has already printed, we'll reprint the corrected version at 50% of the original price. We can't resell a book with somebody else's name in it, so we split the loss with you.

Printing takes 2–4 business days. After that, standard shipping runs 3–7 business days and expedited runs 2–3. So standard orders land somewhere between 5 and 11 business days from when you press buy.

Full detail, including the Christmas cut-off dates, is on our shipping policy page.

Yes. Returns are accepted within 30 days of the delivery date, and a book made out to a named person comes back on the same terms as anything else sold here. It has to come back in the condition it arrived in, with its packaging.

Return shipping is paid by you, except where the item arrived faulty or was sent in error — damaged, the wrong title, a printing error, or a name printed differently from the one you entered. Where the fault is ours we pay the return shipping, and there is no restocking fee on any return.

The story, the artwork and the personalization are identical. Hardcover (from $29.98, depending on the title) has rigid board covers and thicker pages and is the one to pick if the book is meant to survive a few years of bedtimes. Softcover (from $19.99) is flexible, lighter and cheaper to post.

Most of the catalog sits between newborn and about age 7. The Bedtime & Early Learning and Faith shelves skew youngest; Adventure & Search-and-Find works best at 2–7. Books written to an adult — the Mom, Dad, Grandma and Grandpa titles — are bought by grown-ups as gifts and have no age limit at all.

Not at the moment. Our storefront at 703 Washington St is temporarily closed to visitors, so we have withdrawn local pickup and every order is printed to order and shipped to you. Standard shipping is free on orders of $75 or more.

Within the United States only: all 50 states including Alaska and Hawaii, Washington DC, US territories (Puerto Rico, Guam, the US Virgin Islands, American Samoa and the Northern Mariana Islands), and APO/FPO/DPO military addresses. Delivery to territories and military addresses can take a little longer than the standard window. We don't ship internationally, and we'd rather say so up front than take an order we can't deliver.

Everything is printed in the USA, so nothing crosses a border on the way to you and there are no duties or customs charges to pay.
