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.


 
 

生活在數位時代的驢子,只知道電腦與網路世界,不知道「書」是什麼,因此他很好奇的看著猴子手上的「書」,並以電腦使用者的立場問了猴子一連串的問題:「它需要密碼嗎?」「可以傳簡訊嗎?」「可以無線上網嗎?」「玩推特?」但猴子總是淡淡的回答:「不。這是一本書!」

後來,驢子拿走猴子手上的「書」,雖然一邊抱怨字太多,卻還是不自覺的沉迷在故事當中,忘了時間的流逝……

在現在一切講求電腦與網路的數位時代裡,《這是一本書》對紙本印刷書籍來說,是令人振奮的閱讀宣言,打開這本繪本,相信所有喜歡書的讀者,都會會心一笑!
