In a world dazzled by the latest gadgets and mesmerized by Internet videos, the humble book seems like the most ordinary thing that could be. And perhaps it is - until you learn to look closer . . . and closer . . . and closer . . . and you're suddenly in a world that only you can imagine.
With soft, warm storytelling and stunning, whimsical illustrations, Book embarks the reader on an imaginative journey through the literary lands of fact and fiction, a world where passwords, viruses, and broken screens can't stop a young boy's earnest quest for truth. Join in this celebration of literature, scrape the skies of opportunity, traverse the forests of what-could-be, free the powers of knowledge, and discover once again why the humble book is anything but ordinary.
David Miles is the author of Book and has illustrated multiple series including the Slide-N-Seek novelty books and the Let's Coun t regional board books. David and his wife and son live in California where they enjoy lots of tacos, donuts, and books.
