Unique childrens book idea! October 6, 2008 This is a fantastic childrens book. It would make a really good gift. The way the pictures move would make it really interesting for most children and it is quite unusual, also the quality of the book is very nice. Quite unique!
Fab for adults too October 5, 2008 Saw this book and loved it so bought it for an artist girlfriend. Now it has a bit of a cult following among our friends and has been enjoyed by us and our nieces and nephews alike.
this book is fab! June 3, 2008 because it is simple, engaging, intriguing, addictive (I have to keep turning the pages). It's a delight to share with a child, and a joy to play with by yourself.
Really cute! March 8, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
I came across this book in a farm shop and bought it for double the price here! I was so impressed by the moving pictures that I bought it for my two neices. It's a book for the very young but the pictures make it so interesting it's worth getting just for that.
Barcode based scanimation! December 10, 2007 4 out of 4 found this review helpful
This is a pretty short book and would probably be an accompaniment to a bed time story rather than the main story itself.
It consists of a series of bar code like images, and when you turn a page a tab inside is pulled to make an animated image. The first few times you look at this book you won't be able to stop yourself from turning the pages quickly and slowly to perfect the speed of the animation!
It is a novelty - and thankfully a pretty tough one! Unlike books which contain pull down tabs which can easily bend and tear, the pages are thick and the tab to action the action (as it were) is internal to the 2-ply tick card pages so it can't be broken.
Like the other reviewer, I also like the monkey swinging through the trees!
