It's a Book
What's the cure for digital fatigue? It's a Book.
A wry exchange between an IT-savvy donkey, a book-loving ape and a mouse forms this very funny picture book that's perfect for both digital natives and book lovers. With a subversive and signature Lane Smith twist, this satisfying and perfectly executed picture book has something to say to children and adults alike about the importance and joy of reading.
It's a Book is another bold and funny story from the creator of the CILIP Kate Greenaway Medal-winning There Is a Tribe of Kids, Lane Smith.
Review: A work of genius * Sunday Telegraph *
a charming defence of
the book as we know it . . . funny, with entertaining repetitions and
surprises, and a punch line * Sunday Times *
Those of us for whom
books are a faith in themselves - who find the notion that pixels,
however ordered, could be any kind of substitute for the experience of
reading in a chair with the strange thing spread open on our lap - will
love this book. * The New York Times *
a very cute book, short and sweet * Wired *
