Gaze in wonder as mysterious images transform into magical animations. Make the horse gallop, a flag wave, 3D objects turn, and see London landmarks come to life. Many other familiar objects spin, rotate and animate through the pages of the book. All you need is the special acetate overlay provided to bring the images to life. It is suitable for all ages.

5.0 out of 5 stars Simple but amazing, 22 May 2007
By Kooky (Scotland) - See all my reviews
The visual effect demonstrated in this little book to animate images on each page is stunning in its simplicity and effectiveness. The illusion of movement generated by just sliding a plastic sheet over each page is perfect. With a wide variety of subjects, from gears to galloping horses, DNA to dolphins, there's something to thrill and amaze every reader. A perfect gift for any occasion.

This book is amazing and addictive; you can't help but want to keep turning the page. This would be a fantastic stocking filler or something to entertain the kids (and adults alike!). I can't wait to see if a continuing series comes out!

This is a very clever little book. Getting static images on a single page to animate is a wonderful gimmick that is bound to impress most people. Read more

I really enjoyed this book as I can appreciate each of the pages unlike the 3d image books which I've never managed to see any of.
