Childrens
Published last fall, Gallop! introduced the amazing
technology called Scanimation and took the children’s book
world by storm. It became an instant bestseller—#1 on The
New York Times children's list. Now Swing! does for kids what Gallop! does for animals—a
boy rides a bike, a girl kicks her soccer ball, a swimmer
cuts through the water, and a skater pirouettes on ice. The
effect is joyous, magical, mesmerizing, and taps into the
the endless fascination that children find in watching
other children. The second book created by Rufus Butler
Seder, the inventor, artist, and filmmaker who developed
Scanimation out of his obsession with antique optical toys
and other pre-motion-picture illusions, Swing!
uses "persistence of vision" and a patented state-of-the-
art multiphase animation process to create astonishment.
There is nothing else like this unique, patented technology
that literally inspires wonder. The images burst with activity, and adding greatly is a
happy, rhyming text that captures in words the pure energy
of the figures in motion. You can't put it down.
