Chronicle Books, 2011

Apps might be cool, but then again, have you seen Tullet's dot?
The next time a child asks to play games on your iPod, hand him this gem, and watch him jiggle and slide the book around.
On the cover, Tullet asks readers to press a yellow dot with one finger, then inside they take a delightful journey of discovery.
Each page instructs readers to rub dots, shake pages or tilt the book, as dots multiply, change in direction and grow in size.
The biggest surprise is that our imaginations play along: though nothing really moves, we think it does.
All on a simple, printed page.
