From Idea to Book.

How is a book made? A writer thinks of a story and writes it down. After a publishing company edits it, an artist will illustrate the story and a designer will put the two together on a computer.

Then, the computer pages are turned into film that is sent to a printer to be turned into printed pages.

The pages are cut and sewn together to make finished books that are shipped on trucks to stores for people to buy and read.
