Details

Open the book and it lights up. Close it and it is a book on the shelf again.

Walnut-finish covers open to a fan of pleated paper pages that glow soft and warm. Leave it half open beside the bed, or fold the covers right around until it becomes a round lantern. It charges by USB and runs with no cord.

Why you'll love it

No switch to find: it lights as you open the covers and turns off when you close them.
Any shape you like: half open as a gentle glow, or opened a full 360° into a lantern.
Tidy when it is off: closed, it is 2.5 cm thick and sits on the shelf like a book.
