World’s Tiniest Books

I love all things miniature. Faeries, legos, cameras, books and journals. Overall – anything made into a miniature form – I want to acquire.

I really enjoyed this video from Victoria and Albert Museum.
Someone in my Instagram feed posted a snippet (reel) of the part where they are showing World’s Tiniest book – and from there I’ve found museum’s YouTube channel and the full video with even more tiny books from the collection.

It was also insightful to find out why some of the items were handled with gloves, while others with bare hands.

Tunnel books are such a fun item. I can’t remember ever seeing one in real life

Almanac (video at 7:21) type of book (or journal) I could see myself owning. Useful and very pretty.

And of course – the smallest book in the world – would love to see this magical box!


I don’t have any tiny books in my collection, but I have a few tiny journals (empty so far) that I can fill with … something worth of placing into museum in … years?
