David Miles makes books for a living. He also reads books, writes books, sells books, shelves books, thinks about books, drives to books, sleeps to books, and cooks from books, but he doesn't eat books (which is fortunate). He is the author of Book and has illustrated multiple series including the Slide-N-Seek novelty books and the Let's Count regional board books. David graduated from Brigham Young University with a BS in business management. He and his wife and son live in California where they enjoy lots of tacos, donuts, and, well . . . books.
"Thoughtful, poetic phrases are well-matched by mixed-media artwork
. . . One of the prettiest paeans to the codex in recent
memory."
—Kirkus Reviews "The reader is entranced and enchanted
by the imaginary world of the reader to be found in books . .
. Book is a winning presentation of the enduring value of
books (as opposed to other media for readers), enhanced by truly
magical illustrations that encompass a trip to Fairyland and
back."
—Midwest Book Review" . . . A beautiful, wonderful title . . . for
a reading time about the wonder of books."
—Cindy Mitchell, Library Teacher
