How is a Book Made?

In this book there is enough amount of detail to know how a book is made. I did know some of the stuff in the book but i know it in a vague detail, this book made some stuff clear. I learned how paper is made, how glue is made. I learned that color books are made from yellow, blue, red, black, from these colors all the other colors are made. I borrowed this book thinking that it will interesting to know how book is made since i at least read once a day and it was intersting to find out some info about how a book is made. In making a book there is a lot of different people involved and a lot of mony i guess for the publsiher. When i think who makes a book i mostly think of the author, editor, and maybe the publisher but the author and the editor are only part of about 2 stages of the boook production. There are other people involved in the production such as designer, printer, ink makers and others.

Mina,

Somewhere along the line, taking library courses, I learned this too.

I thought it was neat.

The most interesting thing to me was years ago, people would spend there whole lives handwriting books. Now with desktop publishing, you can print a book, instantly.
