1/ Did you know the smallest printed book in the world is smaller than a grain of dust?
Meet Teeny Ted from Turnip Town (2007) — Guinness World Record holder for the tiniest reproduction of a printed book. 🔍
2/ 📏 Size? Just 0.07 mm x 0.10 mm.
To put that in perspective: you’d need a microscope to even notice it!
3/ 🖋️ Written by Malcolm Douglas Chaplin, the story is a simple fable: a boy named Teeny Ted wins a turnip-growing contest. 🥕✨
4/ ⚙️ The book was created at Simon Fraser University by Malcolm and his brother Robert Chaplin.
How? Using a focused gallium-ion beam to carve the text onto a silicon microchip. 🖤💻
5/ 📖 Reading it isn’t easy — it can only be read under a scanning electron microscope.
But don’t worry, there’s also a “Library Edition” that’s large enough for human eyes. 👀
6/ Why does this matter?
It’s a fusion of literature and nanotechnology — proof that storytelling can exist at both the largest and smallest scales imaginable. 🌌
7/ From giant epics to microscopic fables, books remind us that imagination knows no size limits. 💡✨
