Star Wars: 11 Iconic Scenes from a Galaxy Far, Far Away... (A Scanimation Book)

Six months ago, I gave one of these to my 4 yo son and it's been on his nightstand ever since! He still looks at it several times a week. Here are my thoughts: PROS - Amazing design on how the animation works; pretty easy to be mesmerized by it. - Even though it's not a board book, it's still sturdy enough to allow my 1 yo to play with it. - Perfect stocking stuffer or companion gift. I bought many of these and like to include it with any Star Wars gift I give. I swear the parents love it more than the kids do. CONS - Due to the "magic" that has to occur, there really aren't that many pages and very little text. - Slightly darker than other Scanimation books I have so you'll need more room light. OVERALL - Love it! Here's a test for you: put this on your coffee table and see how many people pick this up. Lots of entertainment value.

I wasn't sure exactly what we were going to get when I ordered this book, but what a surprise when we received it. Although it was only 13 pages long, each page shared a fun action-like picture, which was so mesmerizing that it made us turn the pages back and forth, just to see the motion. I actually bought this for my husband, who is a big Star Wars fan. I think this book adds something unique to his collection. When he unwrapped this Christmas gift, my 10 year old nephew's eyes lit up. He was so jealous of his Uncle. It is not a book for just children, but instead it shares it's appeal to adults as well. If you want something fun, this is the book to get. It adds more than what a picture book would provide.

I bought this as a gift for my nephew who lives in a home for disabled children. He can't have a TV in his room or any sort of game system, and I thought this book was a good substitute for those types of distractions since the pictures really do move and come to life. It's infinitely better than the old style moving pictures which really only gave two different pictures. This looks like actual movement and is fun to watch.

I ordered the book for my nephew who is a huge Star Wars fan. It is really interesting and fun to look at. My husband grabbed it and looked at for over 30 minutes, going back and forth between the pages. He could not believe it wasn't some kind of computerized display. I think reading about the author and how and why he created and was able to perfect the pictures makes the book even more interesting. The information is on the author's website, not with the book, which is unfortunate. The book is a great conversation piece for children, grown-ups, and Star Ward fans.

I bought this book on a whim and was surprised by the reaction of my nieces and nephews (ages 10-20). Everyone just loved the book. We have an autistic child in the family and he loves Star Wars and he has now claimed ownership of the book. He loves the way he can control the pictures and movement. I would strongly recommend to anyone who likes Star Wars.

My only complaint is that some of the pictures are very dark and hard to see. That said, my son (35 years) and my grandson (3 years) absolutely love this book.

The first book we got was damaged and had rips in the last pages. We got it replaced promptly (thank you amazing customer service!) I love the book but the images are very dark. I would give more stars if it were easier to see.

What a neat novelty gift book for a Star Wars fan. I stumbled across this book on ebay, but found it here on Amazon for a much lower price. Bought it as a surprise for my 11 year old son, and all three of my kids enjoyed looking at it to figure out how it works.

Reçu en cadeau, fan de Star Wars je me suis passionné à la lecture de cet ouvrage. Un concept sympathique, pour grands et petits. Les images donnent une impression d'animation tout en tournant les pages. On retrouve l'ambiance du film à travers ce livre.

Questo libri sono incantevoli. Questo l'ho regalato, il mio primo l'ho trovato in una libreria di Londra, credo che ne collezioneró diversi. Adorabile quello del Mago di Oz. In regalo diverso dai soliti gadget per gli appassionati di Starwars. Le pagine animate ritraggono scene del film.

EL REGALO IDEAL Y ORIGINAL PARA LOS FANS DE STAR WARS. LAS IMAGENES UN POCO OBSCURAS PERO EL LIBRO VALE LA PENA EN GENERAL.

Absolutely delighted with this pre loved book. The condition is fantastic.....hardly looks used at all and I'm sure our 7 yr old granddaughter will love it. Scanimation books are wonderful.....l have previously ordered two different titles for our 2 yr old twins (also pre loved) and I'm sure all three grandchildren will be fascinated. The trick is to turn the pages over slowly to get the full effect of the moving figures.
