The idea of these books is to be extremely portable and fit in a back pocket or a purse or a backpack. (Of course that means eminently amenable to Little Free Libraries and comfortable in a Tiny House as well …) But the idea is also to publish high quality books – with sturdy library binding so that they will last a long time and wear well as gifts from one person to another. Many of these little books will also certainly be art books. The art of it can be engineering or artistic or utilitarian – waterproof children's books or anything an artist can imagine them to be.

A handmade book such as these can be free to experiment with asll sorts of materials for the pages and cover material. In particular, these books made with handmade paper and or carved/sculptured covers will be captivating.

• Simply choose a heavier card stock for the cover to go around outside.
• You can center-staple the books. (We are also going to be center-stitching some of them on our sewing-machine-loaners and experimenting with sewing various page and cover materials.)
• We are also almost ready also to deliver a a *snap-together binding* method:
      you can produce whatever pages you want and assemble them ...
• then our (3D-printed) spine/binding will hold all these pages in place
• the binding snaps together to give yur finished and complete instant book without needing to stitch or staple at all.

1. Please send or pick out a sequence of images in the order you want them in the book.
2. The number of pages can be any multiple of 8 (But I've only tried 8, or 16, or 24 or 32 so far. -- It seems that 24pp or 32pp is a nice substantial book-in-hand.)
3. Note that because of borders and trimming edges, the actual dimensions of the artwork or other contents you can put on each page is not fully 4.25 x 7 but something more like (3.75" H X 6.5" W) (If your page contents are in those proportions more or less, we can make the images fit in the booklet).
