birthday gifts for her 9th image

Manofstone

I just sent a birthday gift to my fiance in the Philippines and I forgot to ask at the post office. She told me that her brother in law sends a very large man size box over to his wife and it takes two months. But what about a book size box? How long would that take?

Answer
it depends on what service did you used. i send the same size to my brother and he got it in 9 days. i think i used global express. and my brother lives in metro manila area.

How do you bind two books in one cover?

For my brother's birthday gift I'm trying to make an art book where there is one cover (like a normal book) and two sets of "minibooks," so there will be one book on either side of the 9 x 11" cover. (The pages will be 8 x 11, so there will be two sets of pages that rest on the cover, and another two that hang off the side.) Does anyone know how to make this sort of book?

Answer
Really, it depends on the cover. Do you want it to be blank(because then all you have to do is glue a sheet of paper18X22 on both books, the front of the first and the back of the second, and both together) or do you want to keep the original covers?
In that case you'll have to make a new cover, double in width, from some kind cardboard or thicker paper, and saw or glue the margins of the books to it.
Or, for a simpler method, you could glue the back of the first book to the front of the second.
