2. I'll give you a clue...

Can you guess what it is?

You don't have to charge it or insert batteries.

You can sit with it in a tree or under a tree is probably better.

It doesn't lose connection.

If the kids, cat, or dog jump on it, nobody screams, 'No!'

You can smell it and it actually has a smell.

It's not too precious to use.

You can dog ear it's pages.

You can even highlight the important bits.

It's a good size to tuck it in your handbag, balance on the couch, or sit on your bedside table.

It's easy on the eyes.

It's tactile and requires hand, fingers, and fingertip manipulation.

You can slip a bookmark between the pages.

You can build a coffee table, stable table, or pile them on top of each other.

It makes a noise when you close the back cover and say, 'The End.'

and lastly...

You can tell all of your friends and family to go and buy one to support the industry and the most wonderful thing ever created... A BOOK!!!!!
