What is a book?

A book is pages, pictures and words

A book is animals, people and birds

A book is stories of queens and kings

Poems and songs – so many things

Curled in a corner where I can hide

With a book I can journey far and wide

Though it’s only paper from end to end

A book is a very special friend.

Hi! My name is Swa. Welcome to our UNSW bookshop staff picks. I’ve got three books that I think you should have.

First of which is be complete works of Arthur Conan Doyle’s Sherlock Holmes. I have been a fan of him since I was a kid. And I have got all the individual books but for the first time it’s in a leather bound all collections together. One book, which I think, should be on your shelf. The reason I like Sherlock Holmes is he is what I wanted to be as a child – a prodigy who observes and figures out mysteries and solve murders. Something that every child or teenager would love to have.

So, if you haven’t already read it, I recommend it highly for you. If you already a fanatic, that is something, you shouldn’t do without.
