For the love of books

Have you seen J.K. Rowling's fairy tale book on Amazon.com?

You can check it out at www.amazon.com/beedlebard

Would it be too cliche to say it's magical? I am an esthetics person who adores the way books look and feel. I treasure all the small intricacies of how books are put together and this book is a stunning feast for the senses.

The feature on her new book "The Tale of Beedle the Bard" is lovely. It shows you all the gorgeous hand illustrations and small touches of how creative one could get with a book. Of course there are only 7 copies in the world, so looking at the books on the website is about as close as I can get for now.

If you love books as much as I do, you will delight in seeing the images of this book. Who knows, it just might inspire something new in you!

Enjoy...
