The world of books in one little book. It doesn't matter how well read you are, A Little Book About Books is packed full of quotes, one-liners and famous lines from names that everyone will recognise. For bibliophiles, they'll enjoy recognising their favourite passages and authors, all captured in one place. For the less-well-read, they can enjoy discovering new, illuminating quotes and passages that will provide guidance, humour and food for thought. Enjoy exploring the world of books, and the power of writing, in one small, perfectly giftable book. SAMPLE QUOTES: 'Let us read and let us dance; these two amusements will never do any harm to the world.' -Voltaire. 'Almost anyone can be an author; the business is to collect money and fame from this state of being.' - A. A. Milne. 'There are perhaps no days of our childhood we lived so fully as those we spent with a favourite book' - Marcel Proust. 'When I think about how I understand my role as citizen, setting aside being president... the most important stuff I've learned I think I've learned from novels.' - Barack Obama.
