"When my baby cousin and I read this book, he loved how the pages started running. Whenever we saw an animal and I said to him, "What is this?", he told me. He knew every animal and he is only 3 years old. But when I got to his favorite anima, a cat, he went crazy. He loved how it ran. He tried to do it. He got on the floor and tried to sprint. He was going slow. When he first saw the book he loved it and at the end, he loved it even more."
"So much fun!!! "Moving" pictures in a book!!! This is a new generation of pop-up/lift-the-flap type books and I look forward to more. Throughout the pages, cats leap, eagles fly, horses gallop all accompanied by simple but fun lyrical text. It's also durable, a welcome change from most pop-up type books."
"Gallop!, by Rufus Butler Seder, is a fun little piece that will have young children moving around as they show off their agility and physically respond to questions like "Can you gallop like a horse?" or "Can you flutter like a butterfly?"
There's not much of a plot here, but that's not the point. It's the lyrical rhyming of the text, the colorful lettering of the print, and most of all, the patented Scanimation® pictures that will have children (and their parents) wanting to read this book again and again. Yes, Scanimation®; it's a technique that optically animates artwork. Thus, as the reader turns a page, the displayed animal moves. I admit it; it had me mesmerized.
Quill says: Out with the old, in with the new. Move over pop-up books. You now have some stiff competition."
