SuperVisions: Topsy-Turvy Optical Illusions (Supervisions)
Presenting the largest, most incredible collection of topsy-turvy optical illusions ever created, with a stunning mix of classics and previously unpublished designs! Topsy-turvys all contain two different images in one picture—you just have to look carefully to see them both. “Vanishing Rabbit,” for example, is pure magic: one moment the bunny’s in the magician’s hat, and the next, it’s gone, leaving just the conjurer. Are those ladies in the “Bearded Girls” illusion? Turn the page upside down and check again—now they’ve turned into bearded men. “Courtship and Matrimony,” a nineteenth-century satirical card, gives a before and after view of marriage. The variety of art styles ranges from cartoon to classical, and every illustration has a fun surprise. Al Seckel is the author of Masters of Deception, as well as several other award-winning collections. A professor at Cal Tech, he’s the world’s leading authority on visual and other types of sensory illusions. .

Sam, Sally and Suzy continue to use nothing but their elaborate imaginations and ordinary objects to go on all kinds of creative adventures. First, it was with a silly old string. Next, it was a shiny, round hubcap. In The Topsy-Turvy Towel, their object is a big, colorful beach towel. The three friends spend the day on the beach building a beautiful sandcastle. After seeing it get washed away by a wave, the three friends turn their attention to an ordinary beach towel. In their minds, it becomes a hot air balloon, a flying magic carpet, a superhero's capeand that's just the beginning.
