This Is Not A Book

In a uniquely skewed look at the purpose and function of a book’, Keri Smith offers an illustrated guide that asks readers to creatively examine all the different ways in which her ‘non-book’ can be used. With intriguing prompts, readers will discover it can be used, for example, as a secret message - ‘tear out a page, write a note on it for a stranger and leave it in a public place’. Or, it can be used as an instrument - ‘create as many sounds as you like with the book, like flipping the pages fast or slapping the cover’.
