From Charles & Marie:

“What is this thing we are raving about you ask? It is a light. In a book. A pop-up book. So basically a pop-up light… Presented in such a beautiful way: A big (we are talking something like 16″ x 12″ / 41 x 30 cm) beautiful linen bound book (either red or grey) and if you open it, a lamp pop’s up and starts to light up. Fantastic. You can choose between the traditional Lampshade or the Parisian Streetlamp, we’d take both…
Colors: Lampshade, Streetlamp”

From Spoonsisters:

“If you like to read, here’s “Thumb Thing” you must have! Simply put the Thumb Thing on your thumb and pick up a book; the two wings will hold the pages open more easily than if you just used your hand, making reading more comfortable. Ideal for reading in bed, in the bath or at the beach. Since it allows you to read with one hand, it’s great for commuters, especially if they have to read standing up. When you are finished reading, place the Thumb Thing in the top of the book as a book mark”
