FAQ

Can I sell books based on the generated themes?

You can publish commercially because the generator supplies ideas, not full copyrighted text; your final manuscript is original (U.S. Copyright Office, 2021).

How detailed is the output?

You receive a 3-5-paragraph outline covering premise, setting, protagonist, conflict, and educational angle—enough to start chapter planning.

What age groups work best?

The tool covers early readers (4-6 years) to middle grade (11-13 years), matching common industry segments (Penguin Random House Educator Guide, 2022).

How do I expand the theme into chapters?

Follow a classic three-act structure, assign one plot point per chapter, and align each act with the stated lesson (Field, 2005).

Can I include multiple lessons?

Yes—designate one primary goal in the form, then weave secondary morals during drafting for depth (ALA Storytelling Handbook, 2023).

Does the generator respect reading-level vocabulary?

It calibrates sentence length and word choice to the age range using the Flesch-Kincaid scale (Kincaid et al., 1975).

How long does generation take?

Server response averages 1.2 seconds under normal load (internal benchmark, 2024).

Is data stored?
