Steve Jobs may sell his bio only on iBookstore

Now Apple’s chief executive is set to collaborate on an authorized biography, to be written by Walter Isaacson, the former managing editor of Time magazine, according to two people briefed on the project.

The book, which is in the early planning stages, would cover the entire life of Mr. Jobs, from his youth in the area now known as Silicon Valley through his years at Apple, these people said.

It would be a digital book only he is capable of. And I suppose it will be on sale only at iBookstore.

A picture book "Forever Young"

Amazon.com: Forever Young (9781416958086): Bob Dylan, Paul Rogers: Books

Quoted from a customer review,

This is a sweet little book that takes the lyrics from one of Dylan's gentler songs, and attaches them to a story of treating people with love and respect, and following your dream.

Mom reads to our child. May you stay forever young. Yes, I'm still.

Japanese edition is here.

I met this book when I was 13 on a Japanese reader achievement test.
This might be the first literature that I bought of my own. And I still like this.

It includes many essays about her everyday life and topics. The most famous theme is about her family; father, mother, sisters and a brother.
Though her childhood was in The World War II era, there are lots of fun and laughter among Japanese ordinary citizens. This book tells us that.

Her previous book as her first essays "Chichi no Wabijo" (a letter of apology from my father) is more popular than it.
