LOVE THE BEASTI


Henrik Drescher

e kind to your pets! Thats the message of Love the Beastie


Gross, outrageous, but pure fun in a book, Love the Beastie
a pull and poke, spin and play, and cuddle and kiss Valentine for k
and especially kids with pets.
Meet Paul and Judy. And meet their pet, Beastie. Paul and Judy
to be so mean to Beastie. They pulled Beasties hair, tickled Beasti
feet. So, Beastie feastied! Good thing Paul and Judy learned their
lesson (stuck inside the belly of the Beastie).
Written and illustrated by Henrik Drescher, Love the Beastie
picks up where his irresistibly offbeat Pat the Beastie left off. Now
and Judy really are best friends with Beastie, and treat him with th
love and respect he deserves. They go to the playground and spin o
carouseldont throw up! Brush Beasties gunky teeth (Gross!), a
help Beastie play dress-up (ha, look at Beasties funny clothes). Then, at
the end of a long day, they all cuddle together in bed. Ahhh.
So what if Beasties kisses
are scratchy or Beastie farts in
his sleep. That doesnt mean a
thing when you love someone.

Pure fun in a book: Brush


Beasties teeth, spin Beastie on the
carousel, help him get dressed
Googly eyes on cover
An innovative, offbeat, and

affectionate Valentine for children


and their pets

Sequel to the subversive classic


Pat the Beastie, with over 125,000
copies in print in two editions

Henrik Drescher, an illustrator whose work regularly


appears in The New York Times Book Review and other national

BOO

uthor, artist, filmmaker, and


inventor, Rufus Butler Seder
has been fascinated with
antique optical toys since he was a
child. About twenty years ago, he
developed Lifetiles, optical glasstiled murals that appear to come
to life, move, and change when th
viewer walks or rides by. These
movies for the wall are installed
in aquariums, science museums,
train stations, and other public
places around the globe. His next
challenge was to create a similar
effecta moving picture using no
electricity or special lightingbut
on a much smaller scale. So began
Scanimation, the unique patented
technology behind his
bestselling books. Mr.
Seder lives with
his wife in Boston.

WADDLE! A Scanimation Picture


Book Rufus Butler Seder
Its Waddle! Its in color.
And boy, is it irresistible.
In the same way that
kids cant read Gallop!
without wanting to gallop around the room,
Waddle! inspires prancing, hopping, stomping,
and scampering. And did
we mention color? The
prancing pig is pink, the
leaping dolphin is blue,
the slithering snake yellow. The Scanimation
itself is also more lifelike, as the author continues to refine his patented
Scanimation process,
resulting in a more fluid,
realistic motion. Nothing
else compares.
And one more thing:
Waddle! has a surprise

ending. Something else to


grab the readerliterally.

SWING! A Scanimation Picture Book


Rufus Butler Seder

Theres never before been


a book like Gallop!
Employing Scanimation,
each page brings animals,
along with one shining
star, to life with art that
literally moves. A first
book of motion for kids,
it shows a horse in full
gallop and a turtle swimming up the page. A dog
runs, an eagle soars, and a
butterfly flutters. Created
by Rufus Butler Seder,
an inventor, artist, and
filmmaker fascinated

Welcome to Swing!a
boy rides a bike, a girl
kicks her soccer ball,
a skater pirouettes on
ice. The effect is joyous,
magical, and utterly compelling, because of the
endless fascination that
children find in watching other children. The
second book created by
Rufus Butler Seder, who
developed Scanimation
out of his obsession with
antique optical toys and
other pre-motion-picture

by antique optical toys,


Scanimation harkens back
to the kinetoscope, and
the effect is astonishing.
