Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture BookThere's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again. A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly

There's never before been a book like Gallop Employing a patented new technology called Scanimation, each page is a marvel that brings animals, along with one shining star, to life with art that literally moves. It's impossible not to flip the page, and flip it again, and again, and again.

A first book of motion for kids, it shows a horse in full gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog runs, a cat springs, an eagle soars, and a butterfly flutters. Created by Rufus Butler Seder, an inventor, artist, and filmmaker fascinated by antique optical toys, Scanimation is a state-of-the-art six-phase animation process that combines the "persistence of vision" principle with a striped acetate overlay to give the illusion of movement. It harkens back to the old magical days of the kinetoscope, and the effect is astonishing, like a Muybridge photo series springing into action--or, in terms kids can relate to, like a video without a screen. Complementing the art is a delightful rhyming text full of simple questions and fun, nonsense replies: Can you gallop like a horse? giddyup-a-loo Can you strut like a rooster? cock-a-doodle-doo

Every child who opens the book will be amazed--and so will every parent.

Awesome value! Great fit!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
Complete men's suit for under $70!!! Crazy!! My husband is thrilled with this suit! We ordered a XXXL but it was a bit baggy. Ordered the double XL and it was perfect! Husband is 6'1, waist 38, broad chested. No adjustments or hemming needed! Love it!

I felt cute
Gorgeous. Little snug for the jacket for recommended size but I got 6 months to lose some stomach to fit better LOL I don't blame the jacket.

Color is not accurate
Size: Medium, Color: Grey
Suit quality is good. This is NOT dark grey. Its a very standard grey when you have it in person. I might return just for this reason as we were really looking for a dark grey suit.

Stylish, Well-Made, and Comfortable!
Size: XX-Large, Color: Black
I recently purchased this 3-piece suit for my grandson, and I’m very impressed with the quality and fit. The fabric feels durable yet soft, and the tailoring gives it a sharp, modern look without feeling too stiff. The vest adds a classic touch and elevates the overall style. The sizing was accurate, and the suit was comfortable to wear for long hours at work and events. The jacket, pants, and vest all coordinate perfectly, and I appreciate the attention to detail, like the lining and buttons. Whether you’re attending a wedding, business meeting, or formal event, this suit looks expensive without breaking the bank. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a versatile, stylish 3-piece suit!
