內容簡介
【那本沒人想讀的書-由書來告訴你閱讀的秘辛】
哈囉,你好,我是一本書!
我將要與你分享一個故事-有關一本沒人要讀的書。這應該會是一個非常動人心弦、而且可能是意義重大的故事。為什麼呢?
因為這將是第一本由「書」(就是我) 書寫的書。
那麼請你準備好, 聽我娓娓道來...
Have you ever thought about how it feels to be a book? To be left under a whiffy pant pile or shelved, forever collecting dust? To have your pages bent backwards or your spine BROKEN? What if you don’t have a sparkly unicorn or dragon adorning your cover – who will pick you out of the bookshop then? This is the story of the sadly neglected Book That No One Wanted To Read – can its destiny change when it finally meets the right reader? Spoiler alert: yes.
尺寸: 15.2 x 1.4 x 22.8 cm
你有沒有想過,一本書的感受是什麼?如果一本書的書封上沒有獨特的設計,有誰會在書店看見這本書的存在?當書被丟到衣服堆、或是被放在書櫃裡束之高閣,它又會做何感想?當它最終遇到合適的讀者時,它的命運會改變嗎?推薦給喜歡閱讀、並想更了解書籍與閱讀的意義的讀者。
