Book Rests

A book rest is a device designed to hold a book open and at a comfortable reading angle while the reader is using both hands to do other things such as eating or playing an instrument. Book rests can be made of various materials, such as wood, plastic or metal, and come in different sizes and designs. They typically have a raised platform or lip to hold the book open, and some models also have adjustable angles to accommodate different reading positions. They are particularly useful for cookbook reading in the kitchen, for music scores reading for musicians or to use whilst travelling on a plane.
