ABSTRACT:
A bookmark, which by shape and proportion clenches a sheaf of pages of a book, and which is easily resettable, using a sliding motion, during a reading session. The invention is a rigid-planar tool comprising a stabilizer(1), a market (2) and a connector(3). The bookmark is placed on the left side of an open book so that if the reader is at page 100, the stabilizer(1) is placed at page 90 and the marker (2) is placed at page 100. When the reader turns the page, she slides the bookmark so that the marker(2) clears the page margin while the stabilizer (1) remains within the page margins at page 90. The reader then reverses her motion to clench the newly turned page between the marker and the stabilizer. The bookmark is reset and clenching the sheaf of pages 91 to 102.
