Blurb introduces tiny books
Editor’s note on April 2, 2023: Blurb Tiny Books are not actually a new offering, just a little April Fools’ Day fun. For book sizes we do offer, check out our formats page. If you still want to experience a tiny copy of your book, we recommend standing very, very far away from it.

For years, Blurb has made creating photo books something everyone can enjoy. And today, we are extending that enjoyment even further with the launching of our newest line: tiny books.
“We pride ourselves on innovating the photo book market in ways that surprise and delight, “ said Vice President of Marketing Stephanie Peterson. “Tiny books aren’t just cute—they’re a catalyst for bringing books to new audiences for important reasons.”
With dimensions as small as one inch by half an inch, tiny books are revolutionizing the lives of everyone, from anxious parents and near-dead plants to bored pets and budding fashionistas.
We did a soft launch to test out this new format. These are the results!
Toys that tutor
Tiny books helped an exasperated dad with his kid’s nightly homework struggles. “My son hated math, so I made a tiny math book for his favorite toy—now, they’re study buddies!”
Food for thought
“I wanted to give my plant something other than water,” explained an alternative botanist. “Tiny books really perked it up!”
Mental catnip
“Ms. Puddles couldn’t keep her claws off my copy, so I made her this tiny book version,” shared a cat-book author. “Now I’m making them for all her feline friends for a book club!”
Smart accessories
“I took a jewelry-making class, then shrunk all my favorite books. I get so many compliments that I’m thinking of piercing other things!” celebrated one entrepreneur.
