ukulele books

Book and Music

Someday, when electronic paper is perfected, the book as we know it may disappear -- except, perhaps, as a limited edition, handmade art object. Such books exist already, in a variety of shapes and sizes. You can even find them in the shape of ukuleles. Just don't try to order them from Amazon. (Why a ukelele? why not?)

Most of the books on my shelves are conventional rectangles, but I do have a book about New York architecture that is shaped like a skyscraper, and my son has a book about pirates that is shaped like a ship's sail.
