Hi Yes, definitely. If you are willing to take any green book: - Give me a green book. If you want the one that you have been talking about: - Give me the green book.

Hi

Yes, definitely. If you are willing to take any green book:

- Give me a green book.

If you want the one that you have been talking about:

- Give me the green book.

(Probably I'd say: Please could you give me the green book.)
