Grade 5-8-- Here are some crafty ideas to make animation understandable. By following the simple instructions, readers can uncover the secrets of cartooning and animation by making their own flipbooks. The activities are aptly demonstrated with step-by-step instructions, tools needed, and multiple charming graphics. The final chapter includes information for making old-fashioned contraptions for motion--the thaumatrope, the phenakistoscope, the zoetrope, and the praxinoscope. Instructions for building them are specific, but actual construction is more complicated than indicated. However, this book is chock-full of activities for energetic individuals. It shouldn't sit on the shelf for long. --Judie Porter, Media Services Center, Portsmouth School Department, RI
