It's a book!


“What do you have there? It’s a book. How do you scroll down? I don’t. I turn the page. It’s a book.”

With today’s high tech gadgetry, comes a book about a book. Poor monkey just can’t seem to make jackass understand the simple pleasures of reading a book. It doesn’t have wi-fi and it certainly doesn’t need to be recharged. Why? Because it’s a book! Award winning author and illustrator Lane Smith has written and illustrated a number of award winning books such as Madame President, The stinky cheese man and other stupid fairy tales as well as creating art work for famous authors like Roald Dahl and Dr Seuss. With its bold, bright and colourful text and stunning illustration this book will win over everyone who reads it.  With simple sentences, repetition and adorable characters this book would suit lower primary school readers ages 4-7. This book really shines a light on how much technology influences us, and reminds us of the simple pleasure of reading a book.
