Bilingual foldbook · Printable PDF download
Treasure every story you love
Print the stories you’ve walked through as a bilingual foldbook — downloadable PDF, made on A4.
Shape it for the keepsake you want
Before exporting the PDF, every field below is adjustable — so each copy becomes specifically "for this person, for this moment."
Cover image
Pick from the story illustrations or upload your own photo (a portrait, a keepsake, a meaningful moment).
Original title (L2)
Freely rewritable — add a name, a nickname, or a personalized version.
Translated title (L1)
Freely rewritable, paired with the L2 title.
Subtitle / tagline
A short line for a dedication or occasion (e.g. "For Anna, with love").
Cover inscription
A free-form text area for dedications, dates, or a note to someone.
Vocabulary page
Optionally include an L2/L1 vocabulary page with IPA and example sentences — a natural after-reading extension.
Fold it into a storybook in 5 steps
Use a few sheets of A4 paper in landscape (typically 4–6, depending on story length), printed single-sided. Glue, fold, wrap in the cover. 120–160 gsm paper holds folds more crisply.
Print the A4 layout sheets
The exported PDF contains a few landscape A4 interior sheets (typically 4–6) plus 1 cover sheet. Single-sided printing is enough.
Apply glue at the marked edges
Follow the "GLUE" marks on each sheet and join all sheets back-to-back to form one continuous strip.
Fold accordion-style
Following the fold guides, alternate mountain and valley folds to shape the strip into a foldbook body.
Wrap the cover sheet around the spine
Slide the folded interior into the cover sheet — it naturally wraps to form the front and back covers.
Done
Your bilingual foldbook is ready — standing open for reading, or flat on a shelf as a keepsake.
When to keep one
Home bookshelf
Turn a story you read often into a physical book, always within reach.
Birthday gift
Customize the cover inscription and title for a one-of-a-kind keepsake.
Classroom material
Print for students as reading material — bilingual layout + vocabulary page ready to use.
Language milestone
A physical book to mark a stage of learning — more worth keeping than a screenshot.
