Article in Where-questions

Hello, I'm Svetlana.
I have a question. Can we say "Where is a book?" Or only "Where is the book" is correct? Does any rule exist that only the can be used in Where-questions of such type?

" Yes, but that's if, for some reason, you need a book, any book, you don't care which book it is — maybe just as a weight to hold down some papers, maybe just to use in crushing some insect. ", or "I need a book or something as heavy as a book". Anonymous Or is only "Where is the book" is correct?

Yes, but that's if, for some reason, you need a book, any book, you don't care which book it is — maybe just as a weight to hold down some papers, maybe just to use in crushing some insect.

Also, "Where is there a book?", "Where can I find a book?", or "I need a book or something as heavy as a book".
