== Additions ==<br />
=== Blocks ===<br />
[[File:Oak Slab JE1.png|36px]] '''[[Minecraft:Wooden Slab|Wooden Slabs]]'''<br />
* Slabs for each of the four types of wood added.<br />
** New block IDs <code>125</code> for double wooden slabs and <code>126</code> for single wooden slabs.<br />
** These new slabs no longer act like stone.<br />
** An [[Minecraft:axe]] should be used to break them.<br />
** They are no longer immune to [[Minecraft:fire]] and [[Minecraft:lava]].<br />
** Wooden slabs created in older versions of ''Minecraft'' are still stone-like and fireproof and don't change to the new slabs when placed or mined.<br />

[[File:Book and Quill JE1 BE1.png|32px]] '''[[Minecraft:Book and Quill|Book and Quills]]'''<br />
* Editable books, crafted using a [[Minecraft:book]], [[Minecraft:feather]], and [[Minecraft:ink sac]].<br />
** When a book and quill is made, it can be right-clicked to open a screen that allows player to type in the book.<br />
** Pressing "Done" saves whatever was typed and allows player to edit the book again later, yet does not "sign" it.<br />
** When "signing" a book, it allows player to choose a title up to 16 characters long and disable editing of the book, the book and quill then becomes a written book, with the icon changing along with the label.<br />
<br />
[[File:Written Book JE1 BE1.png|32px]] '''[[Minecraft:Written Book]]'''<br />
* Looks the same as a regular book, but has a shine like an enchantment.<br />
