Accordion Book This book is a variation of an accordion book. There are many forms of accordion books and depending on what elements you include the books can function differently. This book has covers and a spine piece that make this book look and function like a traditional book. This book form can be read like a traditional codex, and also be displayed showing all of its pages, like a sculpture. To simplify, simple make the book without the covers and spine.
