The invention relates to a data sheet (1) for integration in a preferably book-like security and/or valuable document, wherein the data sheet (1) is formed of at least two stacked layers (2, 3) of an organic polymeric material, wherein at least in a partial section between the layers (2, 3) and outside of the layers (2, 3), a paper material layer (5) forming a flap (4) is disposed, and wherein the paper material layer (5) is coated and/or wet through on one or both sides at least in the region between the layers (2, 3) at least partially with an organic binding agent (6), and is bonded with the two layers (2, 3) by means of the binding agent (6).

A method of reusing a notebook provides a notebook having a synthetic-paper page. The method also provides a thermochromic ink pen which, when used to write on the synthetic paper page, leaves thermochromic ink markings. The method further provides a moisture carrier configured to have a liquid diffused therein. The moisture carrier is configured to erase the thermochromic ink markings from the synthetic-paper page by contacting the thermochromic ink markings when the moisture carrier is moist. The method then writes with thermochromic ink on at least a portion of the synthetic-paper page. Liquid is diffused in the moisture carrier, and the portion of the synthetic-paper page having the thermochromic ink is wiped with the moist moisture carrier, such that the thermochromic ink is erased from the synthetic-paper page.

An illuminated assembly, and methods of making and using such an illuminated assembly, whereby the illuminated assembly includes a panel and at least one sheet coupled to the panel, the sheet capable of overlaying engagement with the panel. The sheet can include a sheet front surface opposite a sheet back surface, and at least one light transmission portion disposed therein, whereby the light transmission portion can communicate between the sheet front and back surfaces. Further, the illuminated assembly can include a light source operatively coupled to the panel, whereby in an activated condition, the light source can provide light to the panel. Following, the light can be transmitted from the panel through the light transmission portion of the sheet such that the light can be viewable by a viewer of the sheet front surface.

A photoluminescent writing pad, wherein a) the writing pad is fastened to a back cover of a notebook and arranged to be turned to a writing pad of a page of the notebook, b) the writing pad is arranged to gleam through a writing page thus enabling reading and writing in darkness and c) the writing pad has notches for accommodating a spiral wire, especially spiral or wire or similar binding, of a notebook for securing the writing pad under the page of the notebook to function as an interleaf.

A bath book and a puppet combination and method of manufacturing a bath book and a puppet combination, wherein a first intermediate assembly is bonded to a second intermediate assembly to create a third intermediate assembly. A second jersey backing layer is secured to the third intermediate assembly to create a fourth intermediate assembly. The fourth intermediate assembly may be flipped inside-out through a hole opening in the second jersey backing layer. The hole may then be sealed. The second jersey backing layer may be pushed upwards into the further intermediate assembly. An adhesive film may be applied to the terry cloth ring and the non-woven material ring of the second intermediate assembly to create a puppet assembly. The puppet assembly is positioned into a center aperture in a book assembly and bonded therein.

An illuminatable assembly, and methods of making and using such an illuminatable assembly, whereby the illuminatable assembly can include at least one page and a support coupled to the page, whereby the support can be configured to support a light-emitting panel provided by a mobile computing device. When in an activated condition, the light-emitting panel can provide light to illuminate at least a portion of the page.

There is provided a workbook having a plurality of pages. Each page having a writing surface suitable for writing with a dry erasable pen and allowing erasure of the writing. The writing surface is formed on a substrate by applying layers of film. A particular embodiment uses two film layers. A first layer of water-based UV film is covered with a second layer of UV film having a gloss finish.

A book is provided which comprises front and back covers (12,14) and a plurality of pages (16) bound between the covers. A plurality of the pages (16) each have an aperture (18) and the resulting plurality of apertures cooperate with the back cover (14) to define a recess (22) extending through the pages. The book further comprises a container (24) attached to the back cover (14) so as to be located in the recess (22). The book may have multiple recesses and associated containers.
