Abstract: A pillow book construction is disclosed formed of an inscribable, foldable cushion having a pair of spaced padded portions connected by a central unpadded portion. One or more inscribable unpadded sheet-like members are connected to the central portion of the cushion between the padded portions, and are disposed for pivotal movement between said padded portions. The cushion is foldable between an open configuration in which the padded portions are juxtaposed in side-by-side relation and a closed configuration in which the padded portions are disposed in overlying relation with the sheet-like members sandwiched therebetween. The construction is such that when the cushion is in its open configuration, the padded portions form the cover leaves of a book and the unpadded sheet-like members form the pages of a book. When the cushion is in its closed configuration, the book may be used as a cushioned pillow. A strap fastening arrangement serves to releasably retain the cushion in its closed configuration.
