flip book

A flip book is a small book with a series of images on pages that change slightly from one to the next. When you hold the book and quickly flip through its pages with your thumb, the images appear to animate, creating the illusion of movement. This effect works because our eyes blend the rapid sequence of pictures into a smooth motion. Flip books are often used for entertainment or to demonstrate simple animations, making them a straightforward way to understand how motion can be created from a series of still images.
