How to create your unique memory book
Give someone you love a way to preserve their memories in a personal hardcover book. Bring their stories, photographs and recordings together in a gift the whole family can enjoy.
Memory book: Create a book as a gift
Capturing life’s treasures: More than just a gift
A memory book gift begins with an invitation: tell me more about your life. It makes space for the stories behind familiar photographs and the experiences you have not heard about yet.
Ask about a childhood friend, a first job or a place that still feels like home. No story needs to be dramatic to be worth sharing.
Listening can be a gift in itself. A parent or grandparent may be delighted to discover which parts of their life you would love to know more about.
The finished book gives those conversations a place to live, ready to revisit together.

StoryKeeper’s guided prompts help the recipient find a starting point. They can write, dictate or record audio and video online, and add photographs as they go.
StoryKeeper Plus also includes a telephone-call recording service. They tell their story during a call; we record it and turn it into text. They can review and edit the words before printing.
They stay in control of the book. Writing support can help with the wording, but they choose what to include and when it is ready. Neither plan has a deadline or requires a subscription.
Celebrate the past – inspire the future
A life story book celebrates the person receiving it, but the stories can mean just as much to the people who read it later.
The lessons, choices and family traditions they share may help younger generations understand their own story a little better.
Give an unforgettable gift with StoryKeeper
A personal book offers something no off-the-shelf present can: the recipient’s own memories, in their own words.
Read it together, share it with family and use the QR codes to return to the original recordings. Hearing a familiar voice can make a written memory even more special.
Start with a question you have always wanted to ask. There is no need to rush the answer.
