"Altered Books 101"
by Beth Cote and Cindy Pestka

Softcover, 51 pages, color photographs

Time was, drawing and scribbling in a book would have earned you the wrath of your schoolteacher or librarian. Now it's an art form, as taught by Altered Books 101.

With the techniques featured here, you can turn that old copy of Danielle Steel's Wanderlust or other unwanted title into a book that expresses your artistic vision. Authors Beth Cote and Cindy Pestka demonstrate a variety of methods for making over books, including aging the papers, cutting out windows and niches, folding pages and covering that old text up with collage.

Why read someone else's life story when you can tell your own through paintings, sketches, journaling, and other techniques? This guide shows how to create a book that's as unique as you are.
