Solution
The reflection from a mirror is regular reflection, whereas the reflection from a page of the book is diffused reflection. Regular reflection allows us to see our image, whereas diffused reflection allows us to see the object on which the light falls.
Therefore, we cannot see our image in the page of the book.
Therefore, we cannot see our image in the page of the book.
