Gallop!: A Scanimation Picture Book

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. Read more

It wasn’t going to be easy. Many things, not all of them good, had to happen before he got his horn. But when at last he did, he sent music spiraling up into the New Orleans night sky like a spinning top gone crazy. Read more

It’s like walking through a story of Jesus’s life with Mary by our side, showing us how much God loves us. When we pray the Rosary, we use a string of beads to keep track of our prayers, so we can focus on each part of the story without losing our place. The Rosary has five main parts called Mysteries , and each Mystery represents an important event. There are four groups of Mysteries: the Joyful , Sorrowful , Glorious , and Luminous Mysteries. Each one reminds us of something special, like when Jesus was born (the Joyful Mysteries) or when He rose from the dead (the Glorious Mysteries). We start the Rosary with the Sign of the Cross and the Apostles' Creed , then say the Our Father (a prayer Jesus taught us), ten Hail Mary’s (a prayer asking Mary to pray for us), and a Glory Be to praise God. This group of prayers is called a decade , and each Mystery has five decades. Praying the Rosary helps us feel close to Jesus and Mary. When we think about the Mysteries, we learn how Jesus lived, loved, suffered, and rose again, all to save us. Mary, who always said “yes” to God, teaches us how to be faithful, loving, and kind. The Rosary is powerful and calming, helping us to trust God and ask Mary to pray for us. Even though it may take time to learn, the Rosary is a beautiful way to grow closer to Jesus and Mary, making it a wonderful prayer to say anytime, especially with family. Specific topics covered in this title include: The story of the Holy Rosary and St. Dominic Our Lady of Lourdes The prayers of the Rosary The Joyful Mysteries The Sorrowful Mysteries The Glorious Mysteries Read more

RJ Learns

RJ Learn’s “Let’s go potty” was written to help provide speech delayed children to have a template to be able to communicate effectively when going to the toilet. Potty training speech-delayed children can be particularly challenging due to several factors. Communication barriers often make it difficult for these children to express their needs, such as when they need to use the toilet, leading to frustration and misunderstandings. Additionally, they may struggle to understand verbal instructions, complicating the process of following the necessary steps for potty training. Sensory sensitivities, which are common among some speech-delayed children, can also make the experience of using the toilet overwhelming. Key Features: Uses stories to provide visual learning cues, making the process easier to understand than verbal instructions alone. Presents potty training in a relatable and less intimidating context. Reinforces steps and expectations through repetition and consistency. Reduces anxiety and increases comfort with the new routine. Incorporates gestalts, or chunks of language, to enhance communication. Provides ready-made phrases for children to express their needs and understand instructions. This book is a labor of love, written for my son RJ, who has a speech delay. RJ is hyperlexic—he could read and recite the alphabet by the age of 2. However, it took another year and a half before he could communicate using functional language, as we didn’t initially realize he was a gestalt language processor. Once we, along with his speech therapists, recognized this, his progress accelerated. These books are designed specifically for him, integrating key phrases we want him to learn in various contexts.
