Description
All animals move, but how they move - whether they gallop, swim or fly - is a source of fascination for children. With its blend of art (using a technology that makes the figures actually move on the page) and rhyme, this book introduces children to a variety of animal motion.
Critic Reviews
“"At first glance, this looks like a regular old picture book--but the second you open it up, you'll be mesmerized. Thanks to a brand-new technique called "scanimation," the images on each page seem to move, as though you were watching a film instead of simply reading. Horses gallop, eagles soar--and young readers' jaws drop! It's the coolest book we've seen in a while." --, "Daily Favs"”
