How Our Books Are Made

All of Tiny Details' books are constructed in exactly the same way. Whether it be The Hardy Boys or the Thesaurus, the only difference is the printing on the paper.

There are three parts to all books: The inner pages, the cover and the dust jacket.

Folding the Inner Pages

The inner pages are the part of the book that contains the words. All of our books have 16 sheets in them and, since each sheet has two sides, our books have 32 pages. However, that does not mean that you cut out and glue 16 individual pieces of paper. Instead, you cut out a strip of paper with the 16 sheets. These sheets are then fan folded to produce a tidy little stack of pages.

Finished Inner
Pages Stack

One side of the stack is glued to hold the sheets together. Once the glue is dry, the other side of the stack is cut off to give a neat stack of inner pages that can be opened just like a real book.

Book Cover

The cover is cut out of a big sheet of covers. It is folded into the correct shape and then the already completed stack of pages are glued into the spine area.

Dust Jacket

Finally, the dust jacket, which is the colorful outer covering of the book is cut out of a big sheet of dust jackets and folded around the cover of the book.
