9-YEAR-OLD Harper Hawthorne, from Wirral, has created a groundbreaking concept with her dad that enables children to become published authors. Story Wizard is an exciting new platform that gives children the chance to write their own stories and become published authors, complete with their very own printed book and an official certificate celebrating their achievement.

Designed to spark creativity and build confidence, Story Wizard transforms a child’s imagination into something they can hold in their hands forever. Young writers begin by creating their own characters, deciding what they look like, who they are and the role they’ll play in the story. They then develop the plot, choosing everything from the setting and adventure to the challenges their characters will face.

The story is carefully written and illustrated based on the child’s ideas before being transformed into a beautifully printed paperback or hardback book, with the child’s name proudly displayed on the cover as the author. Every young writer also receives a personalised certificate recognising them as a published author, making the experience one they’ll treasure for years to come.

In an age where screens dominate much of children’s free time, Story Wizard encourages youngsters to embrace creativity, storytelling and literacy in an engaging and rewarding way. Rather than simply reading stories, children become the creators, learning that their ideas have real value and deserve to be shared.

What makes the concept particularly special is that every book is completely unique. Whether a child dreams of writing about dragons, pirates, superheroes, magical forests, family members or family pets, their imagination is at the heart of every page. It’s about inspiring confidence, encouraging creative thinking and showing children that they really can achieve something extraordinary.

Story Wizard is suitable for young authors aged 7-14, with families able to choose from different book lengths and genres. Every order includes free UK delivery, with each personalised book printed to order and delivered directly to the family’s home. In addition, £1 from every book is given back to the Schools Creative Writing Fund to help UK schools access books, stationery and creative writing resources.

Harper said:- “I loved creating stories so asked my Dad if I could become an author. He is good with technology so we created a book together. I have now published 10 books. 1 is called The Secret Guardian Of Dibbinsdale and it’s about my cat Lola protecting other animals. Another is called Buzzlebee Bob about a giant bee and one is about a four eyed blue fluffy monster and a shark.”

Harper’s Dad, Martin, said:- “Harper is always full of stories and ideas. She wanted to turn them into books and become and author, but we didn’t know where to start. I’m quite tech-savvy so looked into created a system that would help her turn her ideas into reality and write a book for her — published in her name. She absolutely loves creating the books so we’ve decided to roll it out as a business.”

For Harper Hawthorne, what started as an imaginative idea shared with her dad has become an opportunity to inspire children across the country to believe in their creativity. After all, every great author starts with a single story — and thanks to Story Wizard, thousands of children could soon be writing their very first one. Books start at just £21.99, including the book delivered along with a certificate.
