Description - Books, Books, Books!: Explore Inside the Biggest Library on Earth! by Manning Mick

A hand-made Gospel hidden in a saint's coffin; a HUGE atlas that takes six people to lift it; a tiny prayer book carried by a queen to her execution; the very first handwritten manuscript of Alice in Wonderland; books so rare and valuable they are kept in a bomb-proof storeroom.
From man-eating monsters and brave knights to wicked witches, haunted moors, magical creatures and flying machines, award-winning duo Mick Manning and Brita Granstrom bring to life the amazing and extraordinary history of the book through the treasures of the greatest library in the world - the BRITISH LIBRARY.
