Sugar cane can be found beside bodies of water, whether it be oceans, lakes, or rivers. Sugar cane needs 1 block of water immediately beside it to be planted and grow. If you are planning on making multiple books at one time, like to make a bookshelf, it’s recommended that you make a sugar cane farm to expedite the process. To learn more about making paper, read here. Next, you have to collect enough leather. Leather can be obtained by killing cows or llamas around the world. Cows are fairly easy to find in any biome, so it won’t be too difficult to locate some. Llamas, however, spawn mainly in taiga biomes. Get one piece of leather per Minecraft book you wish to make. Cows can drop anywhere from 0-3 leather, and they drop more with the looting enchantment. Llamas drop 1-3 leather, again dropping more with the looting enchantment. Once you have your paper and your leather, you can proceed to make your books. Crafting tables are not needed for making books. Open the survival inventory crafting GUI. Place the leather in the lower left-hand corner, and surround it with paper. Voila, your paper has been crafted successfully.
