It's a Book Summary

It's a Book by Lane Smith

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.

It's a Book Reviews

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 *
