Notes
This series presents a fascinating look at how familiar objects are made. Behind the shiny covers of a new book hides a lengthy editing and manufacturing process. This is described in simple language with clear diagrams and photographs. Anthony Browne’s picture book Piggybook is the example used and a copy of it, considered at the same time, would make this factual book take on another dimension.
