How does this book work?

This game uses the StoryGuider system and is intended for ages 2-7.   Its a choose your adventure coloring book, which means that you’ll read a story, pick what the character does, AND color the pages how you want.

There may also be other activities, like using maps, talking to characters, and choosing your supplies to act out and play with.

Skills practice built in

StoryGuider is designed for fun and skills practice. This particular story focuses on these skills:

• Make choices between two options
• Point to pictures when they are named
• Give short answers (1-4 words)
• Play make-believe games
• Practicing kindness with others
• Depending on others
• Practice body exercises (gross motor skills)
• Color pictures and doodle (fine motor skills)

About the StoryGuider system:

StoryGuider is a system to help make simple stories with your kid(s) so they can get used to tabletop role-playing games (TTRPGs), decision-making, problem-solving, etc.

It focuses only on the RP side of TTRPGs (there are optional dice roll rules provided, but they are not required).  This is so kids can get used to playing as a character and changing the story without having to simultaneously worry about learning mechanics that they are not familiar with.  It is a stepping stone into playing more rules-based TTRPGs OR can just be a fun interactive story time experience!

I hope you have fun with this adventure, and happy gaming!

Note: This game recieved a major update in 2026 that meant new art, layout, and structuring for the story!  In case people prefer the old version, I've kept the files here.  This older version is marked in the file name.
