Steps To Make A Book
1. Open Your Crafting Menu
Open your artboard so you can see the 3×3 grid as shown in the image below.
2. Add Papers and Leather
With your artboard open, we now need to place the 3 papers and the leather on the squares on the grid, as shown in the image below.
It’s important the items are placed in the squares exactly as shown in the image.
In the first row, place 1 paper in the first box and 1 paper in the second box. In the 2nd row, put 1 paper in the 1st box and 1 leather in the 2nd box. This is the recipe from the Minecraft book.
Once you have placed the items in the appropriate boxes, you will notice that a book appears in the box on the right.
3. Move The Book To Your Inventory
Finally, click on your book and move it down to your inventory.
