內容簡介
內容簡介 紙本書的絕地大反攻! 逗趣又搞怪的幽默感是作者Lane Smith的正字標記,當然《It’s a Book!》也毫無例外。驢子生活在Web2.0時代,他擅長一切網路所需的求生技巧,卻早已經不知道「書」是用來做什麼的、又該如何使用。當他看見猴子捧著一本書時,不禁感到一頭霧水,於是用一連串無厘頭的問題砲轟猴子:「你要如何把頁面往下捲?」「這需要密碼嗎?」「可以貼文嗎?」「是用無線網路嗎?」「可以推特嗎?」猴子總是淡淡回答:「不。這是一本書!」 當驢子看見猴子手上這奇妙物件裡面《金銀島》的故事段落,雖然嘴上喃喃抱怨字實在太多,卻終於不可自拔地沉迷於其中,忘了時間的流逝…… 《It’s a Book!》是數位時代中紙本書的頑皮抗議,要讓所有喜歡書的讀者們會心一笑!這是獻給每一個世代的閱讀宣言,可別把它下載到iPad、Kindle或Nood裡頭,誠摯地邀請你打開繪本,一頁頁翻讀、細細品鑑,你將更能體會其中諷刺的興味!
