Tiny Book Sold for Big Price

Tiny Book Sold for Big Price Oh, hello. I'm reading a book. It's a really interesting story. But it's a big, heavy, and long book! It's taking a long time to finish. 我現在看的書又厚又重，已經看很久了。 I might try a shorter, smaller book next time. Not too small though. Not like a tiny book I heard about recently that's so small you can't even read it! 我聽說有一本書非常小，小到看不見寫什麼！ Made in Germany, this book is just 5 millimeters by 5 millimeters. That's the size of the end of a pencil! 這本書是德國做的，長跟寬都只有5釐米，像鉛筆的筆尖那麼小！ If you want to read it, you'll need a magnifying glass because the words are so small! 要用放大鏡才看得到字。 The book was recently sold for over 130,000 NT! Someone paid a lot of money for a teeny-tiny book that's really hard to read! Unbelievable! 有人用13萬台幣買了這本小小的書，真的很不可思議！ Not only that, but if you put the book down for a second, it could be gone! It's so small you could easily lose it! 那麼小的書應該也很容易弄丟吧！ I think I'll stick with my big book.
