Swing!: A Scanimation Picture Book

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.

From Publishers Weekly
Starred Review. Admirers of Gallop! which last year introduced Seder's astonishing Scanimation technology, won't want to miss this sports-themed follow-up. Open the die-cut cover and see a baseball player swing his bat at a ball, then watch as the ball zooms ever-larger to fit the acetate window showcasing all this action. Yes, there's motion on each of these spreads, or the illusion of motion, as hidden engineering triggers codes on the b&w Scanimation images. As in the previous title, colored fonts and multicolored borders offset the severity of the b&w pictures and generate reader participation: Can you ride a bicycle?/ spin! vrim! vrooom! On other spreads, child athletes perform soccer drills, run, cartwheel, twirl on ice skates, shoot hoops, swim and lead cheers—it's all jaw-dropping, even if the novelty technology has yet to find its most imaginative application. Ages 3–up. (Oct.)

网友对Swing!: A Scanimation Picture Book的评论

My son loves this whole series! We read one of these--either Gallop, Waddle, or Swing, everyday. The animations are great! I'd say if you're starting with a child under 2, go with either Gallops or Waddle. My little one soon learned to make the sounds with me as we moved the pages.

I have now bought at least 10 of these Scanimation books because their animated pictures are absolutely wonderful for children of all ages. It is a board book that is truly interactive. This particular one covers baseball and I bought it for a shower present for someone who was expecting a baby boy. They will keep a toddler amused for hours and they cover many topics: animals, sports, comics, even The Wizard of Oz and Star Wars! I think Rufus Butler Seder is a genius!

We gave this at Christmas to our just turned 3 year-old grand daughter and she squealed with delight when she opened it. She already has the author's book "Waddle" and we have enjoyed reading this with her on her trips to our house since she often packs that book as one of her favorites. From her reaction I think this will be a new favorite as well and it's nice that this one shows people which is different from Waddle, which has animals.

My son LOVES this book! He will sit and open/close the book just to watch the pictures move! He has started to try peeling the pages open to see how it works but that's not difficult to fix! I enjoy how positive the books are as well. At times, my son will do the motions as I'm reading the book to him!

This book is so neat! My kids love it. Will definitely buy more of these scanimation books in the future.
