Pop up books
Robert Sayer changed that with the production of "metamorphoses" books. These books, which were also called "turn-up" books or "Harlequinades," afforded amusement, not so much through their printed contents, but through their illustrations that changed and kept pace with the story. "Metamorphoses" books were composed of single, printed sheets folded perpendicularly into four. Hinged at the top and bottom of each fold, the picture was cut through horizontally across the center to make two flaps that could be opened up or down. When raised, the pages disclosed another hidden picture underneath, each having a few lines of verse.

Quote by Garrison Keillor quotes (American writer and broadcaster b.1942)
“A book is a gift you can open again and again .”
Facts
In 1939 an author named Ernest Vincent wrote a 50,000 word novel called Gadsby. The only thing unusual about the novel is that there is not a single letter ‘e’ in the whole thing.
In the book, Les Miserables by Victor Hugo is one sentence that is 823 words long.
The Bible contains 3,566,480 letters, or 810,697 words.
Leo Tolstoy wrote a large book called War and Peace before computers and copying machines. His wife had to copy his manuscript by hand seven times.
Charles Dickens had to be facing north before he could write a word.

If you are required to write in your book, use a pencil, and erase the markings.Check the table (or other surfaces) for moisture, crumbs, and stickiness before you put your book down.
