// Subclass of Item
// A book object. Handles the creation and storage of a
// book, containing title, author, number of copies "owned" by the library,
// and copies of this book currently checked in. Parent class of fictionbook,
// periodicalbook, and childrenbook.
//
// Assumptions:
// -- book copies will be initialized by subclass
// -- all books will have a title
//
// Implementation:
// -- available and total copies initialized to 0 for generic book object
// -- subclasses will initialize total and available copies
