Retrieved April 16, 2015.</ref> are ghostly library books only found in [[Creepy Castle]]'s library which can only be accessed by [[Donkey Kong]], during the events of ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. When Donkey Kong triggers a switch, it opens a secret passageway. Once he gets to it, there is a path that leads to a [[Golden Banana]], but several Books are flying through the walls blocking the path. Donkey Kong must use the [[Strong Kong]] ability to pass the flying Books. Books cannot be defeated, they can only be passed by. 

==Trivia==
*If Donkey Kong is blocking the path of a Book, it'll just glare at him and disappear rather than fly through him despite the fact that they can fly through solid walls.
*The attack pattern of Books is similar to the [[Bookend]]s of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.
*The Books greatly resemble the ''[[wikipedia:Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' character, Cheato.

Retrieved April 16, 2015.</ref> are large red library books that appear only in a library passage within [[Creepy Castle]] in ''[[Donkey Kong 64]]''. A [[Golden Banana]] appears at the end of the passageway, which can be accessed only by [[Donkey Kong]], but several Books are blocking the path to it. The Books endlessly and rapidly flap between two adjacent bookcases. Donkey Kong can safely pass through the Books only by using his [[Strong Kong]] ability. Books cannot be defeated, and they vanish if they hit Donkey Kong, who is injured by the attack unless his Strong Kong ability is active. If Donkey Kong stands in the path of a Book, it does not fly through him and instead glares at him, then vanishes.

 ==Trivia==
-*Books bear a strong resemblance to [[jiggywikki:Cheato|Cheato]] from the ''{{wp|Banjo-Kazooie}}'' series, which have an overlapping development team and period with ''Donkey Kong 64''.
+*If Donkey Kong is blocking the path of a Book, it'll just glare at him and disappear rather than fly through him despite the fact that they can fly through solid walls.
-*The book title on a Book's front cover reads ''DK64 Players Guide'', a reference to ''Donkey Kong 64''{{'}}s corresponding ''[[Nintendo Power]]'' guide. The title is too faint to read within the game itself.
+*The attack pattern of Books is similar to the [[Bookend]]s of ''[[Super Mario 64]]''.
-*The attack patterns of Books are similar to those of [[Bookend]]s in the library of [[Big Boo's Haunt]] in ''[[Super Mario 64]]'' and ''[[Super Mario 64 DS]]''.
+*The Books greatly resemble the ''[[wikipedia:Banjo-Kazooie (series)|Banjo-Kazooie]]'' character, Cheato.
