　　中国的这两部作品击败了来自32个国家的600部图书，成功入围了在德国莱比锡评选出的14部获奖图书之列。

　　The Book of Bugs, designed by Zhu Yingchun and Huangfu Shanhan, contains no words, but only 'works' by various types of insects: either trails of them crawling by with ink on their feet, or traces left after munching³ on leaves.

　　《虫子书》一书由朱赢椿、皇甫珊珊设计，全书内页没有文字，由虫子们一幅幅形态各异的'作品'构成：或是它们脚上沾有墨水在纸张上爬行，或是它们在叶子上啃咬后留下的痕迹。

　　Board Carvings by Leng Bingchuan, designed by Zhou Chen, features a selection of board carvings of Chinese artist Leng Bingchuan, who used knives as brushes to create awe-inspiring art pieces on cardboards.

　　《冷冰川墨刻》则由周晨设计，全书是中国艺术家冷冰川墨刻作品的合集，他用小刀作为画笔在纸板上创造出令人惊叹的艺术作品。
