My object is a Tin Tin Book. It is a plastic book with a colored ink. It is set up like a graphic novel. It has smooth pages with a cardboard cover. It is part of a series. The series was created during the 1930s by Herge and was originally published in French. It feels smooth. It has no creases. It smells like a new book. It is made out of plastic, paper, and cardboard. It is used for reading. The book set costs more than $350 today. When my mother and father lived in India not one family even owned one of these books. It was only owned by the town library. It is also important to me because my family have now become much more wealthy and now we have the entire series. It means a lot because my family has been reading these books for years. It describes part of who I am because our family has come a long way.
