Use Gemini to create illustrated storybooks
What’s changing
You can now use Gemini to craft personalized, illustrated storybooks about any topic with read-aloud narration. You can create a story by simply describing the storybook you want in a prompt (e.g. “Create a storybook for my 2 and 4 yo daughters explaining my career to them based on my uploaded resume and photo”), or by using the new pre-made Storybook Gem, and Gemini will create a unique 10-page illustrated storybook complete with custom audio narration. You can also add content like photos and other files to teach a lesson through visual storytelling, explore moments in the past, or use it as a vibrant canvas for imaginative fiction.
A storybook in Gemini is created with illustrations and text based on a user’s prompt.
