Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture BookThere's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again. A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly

There's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again.

A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly flutters. 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. It harkens back to the old magical days of the kinetoscope, and the effect is astonishing, like a Muybridge photo series springing into action--or, in terms kids can relate to, like a video without a screen. 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

Every child who opens the book will be amazed--and so will every parent.

Missing answers to even number questions
Format: Hardcover
Great info but there are no answers for the even number questions. Only for the odd numbers. I would like to all answers to questions.

The Only Resource You'll Need to Pass the RHIA
Format: Hardcover
What did I like? This textbook is fully comprehensive of all that you'll need in order to take and pass the RHIA examination. I lost my credentials when I didn't renew my professional dues and needed to take it again after 26 years. Granted I have experience in the field, but this book covered it all. What did I use this for? I used this text to prepare for my RHIA exam administered by AHIMA.

Exactly what my sink needed!!
Color: Black, Color: Black
Okay, this thing turned out to be way more useful than I expected. It’s big enough to actually hold everything — sponge, scrub brush, even the soap dispenser — without looking cluttered or crammed together. Plus everything dries faster, so my sink area finally doesn’t look like a wet chaotic mess all the time. 😅 The quality is really solid too. Feels sturdy, doesn’t rust, and was super easy to install. It stays put and keeps water from collecting around the sink, which honestly makes cleanup so much easier. Such a simple little product, but it really does make the kitchen look cleaner and more organized. Definitely recommend.
