Mathieu Lommen,John A. Lane: The Book of Books: 500 Years of Graphic Innovation

The Book of Books: 500 Years of Graphic Innovation


Description

The book has been the number one information carrier for many centuries; even in the digital age, books continue to sell and continue to be objects of desire. "The Book of Books" describes and, above all, demonstrates the visual history of the printed book, with graphic milestones and other surprising finds drawn from the University of Amsterdams Special Collections Library, one of the greatest libraries in the world. It is a superbly illustrated celebration of those printers, publishers and graphic designers who have extended the boundaries of their profession both aesthetically and technically, always to stunning effect.

Billy loves to draw. He draws on books and on his homework and even on his math tests-he might not get the answer right, but doesn't it look swell sitting in a boat at sea? His teacher doesn't think so, and neither does the principal. But the librarian has an idea that just might help Billy better direct his illustrative The Book of Books: 500 Years of Graphic Innovation download PDF energies: a book-making contest! Billy gets right to work, reading everything he can about meteors, mythology, space travel, and...mucus? Yep, his book is going to be about the world's smartest booger, who stays tucked away until needed-say, to solve multiplication problems, or answer questions from the President. Billy's sure his story is a winner. But being a winner doesn't mean you always win. Full of nostalgic references to a time when TV was black-and-white and Sunday newspapers had things called the funnies, this wildly fun story-within-a-story is based loosely on children's book legend William Joyce's third grade year, and includes a sewn-in mini-book of that tale of the world's smartest booger.
