Its #MiniatureMonday! So what do I have better to do on the first day of the week than distract myself with this little flip-book? Though HULLO, PETAL! is nondescript on the outside, the leaves inside blossom with wholesome flip-book fun. 

Flip-books were first patented by John Barnes Linnett under the name of kineograph, or “moving picture,” in September, 1868. They use a trick of the human brain called persistence of vision to create the mirage of movement when multiple discrete images appear to fuse as one. Though all animation uses this form of optical illusion, flip-books are considered to be the most primitive type of animation.

However, I have to add on a personal note that flip-books may be the most distracting type of animation.
