New Invetion in the Book Business

One would think that technology and your run of the mill fiction best-seller are not a match. However, a new development in books has made reading in bed substantially more comfortable and convenient. Little has changed in the world of books since the invention of the printing press in the 1800`s, until now that is. The ingenious Bed Book format has the text printed sideways on the page so that the book can be read when lying on one`s side. Discovered by a retired filmmaker in a sleeping module in his RV which had a 24 inch ceiling, the revolutionary patent pending sideways text layout of Bed Books affords total comfort for persons who love to read in bed but are tired of the back and neck strain, and the contorted body positions normally required for reading conventional books in bed.

Bed Books have created the world`s first bed books, and are selling them at their web site. They sincerely believe that someday a majority of printed books will be Bed Books. Aside from being perfect for reading in bed, as well as other places people enjoy reading while lying down, such as the beach, or on a grassy lawn in the park, Bed Books can also be read just as easily sitting up as with a conventional book. Albeit with quite a few odd looks coming your way.

The first Bed Books the business has created are great classics, such as Pride and Prejudice, The War of the Worlds, Wuthering Heights, Huck Finn, two Sherlock Holmes titles, The New Testament, Peter Pan, and many more. They intend to add titles as increasing numbers of people and publishers become aware of this new technology. The company wants their web site to be fun and informative, and a sanctuary for the millions of neglected bed readers. They even have a Bed Book Fan Club, and a place where you can submit pictures of oddball positions and inventions people have been forced to come up with in order to read in bed comfortably.
