What makes a Kiddalou book a Kiddalou book
Most activity books do one thing: a stack of coloring pages, or a set of puzzles, and that's it. We build ours as small adventures instead. One theme, explored from several angles: coloring leads into a fun fact, the fact into a puzzle, the puzzle into something kids make themselves. By the last page they've drawn, read, solved and created, and they have a diploma to prove it.

One theme, several ways in
Coloring, facts, challenges, games, and school activities all pull in the same direction, so finishing a book feels like finishing something.
Real facts, checked
Everything we tell kids is true and written to be read out loud, whether it's about axolotls, the ocean, or how a pyramid was built.
Something to keep
Every book ends with a cut-out diploma to personalize. Small thing, big deal when you're seven.
Lou is in there somewhere
Our fox turns up in the artwork, sometimes explaining an activity and sometimes just waiting to be spotted.
A bonus hiding inside
Some books include a QR code that unlocks a pack of extra activities by email, so the book keeps going after the last page.
Where the collection is headed
Kiddalou started in 2026 and is built to grow with the kids reading it. Alongside coloring and activity books, future titles will move into math, writing, fine motor skills, puzzles, and reading, both fiction and nonfiction, plus books that come at school subjects from a more playful angle.
We'd rather publish one book we're happy with than fill a shelf quickly. When the next one is ready, it lands on this page first.

Before you buy
Where can I buy Kiddalou books?
On Amazon.com, where you can also browse our full author page. Every title on this page links straight to its listing, where you can check the current price and the delivery options for your address. Amazon ships to plenty of countries outside the US, though availability and shipping costs vary by destination.
What ages are Kiddalou books for?
Kiddalou is made for kids roughly 4 to 12 years old, with different books and printables designed for different stages within that range. Ages are a guide, not a rule: each book shows its recommended age range clearly, and you know your child better than the number on a cover does.
What should my child color with?
Dry materials are the safe bet: colored pencils, crayons, and oil pastels all sit beautifully on the page. We’d steer you away from markers, watercolor, and anything wet: our books are printed on standard book paper, which is on the thin side, so a marker will often bleed through to the illustration behind it.
Are Kiddalou books available as ebooks?
The activity books are print only, and they’ll stay that way. Coloring, cutting out a diploma, and working through puzzles or school activities don’t translate to a screen. The nonfiction titles we’re preparing for older children and for adults will be available as ebooks.
