Product Description
Swing! does for kids what Gallop! does for animalsa 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. 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.

We love this book at our house. The kids even took it to "show and tell" on Thanksgiving with extended family. Everyone loved it - esp. the adults. What a fun book! I'm getting Gallop!

This book works the same way as Gallop. (Another great book) I got it for my grandchildren last year. When I go to babysit they still bring this out for me to read. I just bought Swing for my three year old grandson for Christmas. I can't wait to give it to him. He's going to go bonkers over it.

Fans of Rufus Butler's previous book "Gallop" will love this new offering. This book has kids in various motions - riding a bike, moving on ice etc. Although the suggested age group says 4-8, I'd say even babies-toddlers will appreciate this and be enthralled by the moving images. Though the idea behind this is by no means novel, it still has a magical feel to it and even adults will be fascinated!

This book is the 2nd book by Rufus Butler. It takes an old concept and brings it to life in a fun book where children can make pictures move! I say "an old concept" because this idea of moving pictures has been around for a long time; I had books similar in type when I was a child. Very cute book, lots of fun to look at. Great for 2-4 yrs.
Great gift! COOL CONCEPT! November 24, 2008

I just saw this book at a baby shower, picked it up and played with it for about 10-15 minutes. What a great idea for a book! Adults all passed it around and everyone who held it had a positive comment about it. COOL AWESOME WEIRD NEAT were some of the words to describe their reactions to this book. I am going to get this one along with GALLOP as a gift for babies and toddlers birthdays that will come up soon.
