A method of displaying a relative position of a current page (168) of a book displayed using an electronic book (118) having a book-shaped housing (100) includes displaying the current page (168) on a first portion of a display device (130) incorporated in the book-shaped housing (100). A graphical representation (178, 188) of the relative position of the current page (168) within the book is displayed on a second portion of the display device (130), the second portion being peripheral to the first portion. The graphical representation (178, 188) can include an image of a plurality of page edges located proximate to an edge of the first portion, the plurality of page edges aligned generally parallel to the edge. The edge can be either a side edge, a top edge, or a bottom edge of the first portion. Preferably, the image of the plurality of page edges has a depth proportionate to a number of pages remaining in the book relative to a total number of pages in the book. |
