PARTS OF A BOOK

Most writers are also avid book readers.  The amount of time that we spend reading is above average.  We also love the feel of a book, and yes, the smell.  I appreciate the new technology on electronic books, but nothing compared to handling a tome.  This got me thinking that many of us are not familiar with the proper names for the parts that make up a book – the physical parts.  So, I decided to make this post and include an image to point them out.  In this case, pictures say more than words.  Here it is.
