| Gallop! is an amazing new book for kids using a patented new technology called Scanimation. The book comes to life with motion ... a galloping horse, a swimming turtle, a soaring eagle, a jumping cat and more! Created by Rufus Butler Seder, an inventor, artist, and filmmaker fascinated by antique optical toys, Scanimation is a state-of-the-art six-phase animation process that combines the "persistence of vision" principle with a striped acetate overlay to give the illusion of movement. Complementing the art is a delightful rhyming text full of simple questions and fun, nonsense replies: Can you gallop like a horse? giddyup-a-loo Can you strut like a rooster? cock-a-doodle-doo
