Little stories for the big moments of a toddler's day
Cozy Cub Press makes short, rhyming picture books for children ages 2–5. Our first series, Little Routines, follows one friendly animal through one everyday routine: bedtime with Milo the Fox, brushing teeth with Bella the Bunny, potty time with Penny the Penguin and more.
The books are written to be read aloud in about three minutes, with big early-reader text and warm, colorful 3D animated-style illustrations. They're delivered as instant PDFs, so you can read them on a tablet tonight, or print and laminate them for the bathroom sink, the bedside table or the classroom.
How the books are made: the stories are written by Louis Deeley. The illustrations are created with AI image tools from the author's own prompts and character designs, then selected, edited and laid out by hand.
Good to know
How do I get my book?
Every book is an instant digital download (PDF). After checkout on Etsy, download it from You › Purchases and reviews or the link in your confirmation email. Nothing physical is shipped.
Can I print the books at home?
Yes. Pages are square (8.5″). Print "fit to page" on letter or A4 paper, or ask a print shop for 8.5″ square. Staple, bind, slip into page protectors, or laminate for a wipe-clean book. Colors may vary a little by printer.
What ages are they for?
Toddlers and preschoolers, ages 2–5. Short, rhythmic lines are made for reading aloud, and the pictures show each routine step by step, so pre-readers can follow along.
Can I read them on a tablet or Kindle?
Yes, in any PDF app on a tablet or phone (Apple Books, Files, Google Drive and others), and on Kindle Fire tablets or the Kindle app. Black-and-white e-ink readers aren't recommended because the pictures are full color.
Can I share the files?
Books are for your own household: print as many copies as your family needs. One teacher may print and read a book with their own class. Please don't share, resell or upload the files. For school, library or therapy-practice use, please ask about a group license.
