It's a book cover

It's a book

by Lane Smith

Can it text? Blog? Scroll? Wi-fi? Tweet? No, it's a book. A donkey with a laptop computer and a gorilla with a printed book discuss the merits of their preferred formats. Playful and lighthearted with a subversive twist that is signature Lane Smith, It's a Book is a delightful manifesto on behalf of print in the digital age. This satisfying, perfectly executed picture book has something to say to readers of all stripes and all ages. - Publisher.
