<bookstore specialty="novel" xmlns:my="http://www.placeholder-name-here.com/schema/">
<my:book style="leather" price="29.50">
<my:title>Who's Who in Trenton</my:title>
<my:author>Robert Bob</my:author>
</my:book>
<book style="autobiography">
        <title>Seven Years in Trenton</title>
        <author>
