Well, I went back to the <em>Ute K\u00f6rner Literary Agent<\/em> (our original source) to perform a little google-fu on there server, and I ended up with a nice little surprise! I found a file which led me to the rights section on Scholastic, which <em>then<\/em> led me to <a href=\"http:\/\/blogs.scholastic.com\/files\/ff10-rights-guide-scholastic-us-1.pdf\" target=\"_blank\">a PDF<\/a>, giving us an <em>exclusive<\/em> look at the lenticular cover for Animorphs #2! It was posted along in combination with the cover for Animorphs #1. And as you can see from the pictures below, I went ahead and cropped it out of that for you guys as well.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hiracdelest.com\/images\/blog\/am2-cover-crop.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hiracdelest.com\/images\/blog\/am2-cover-crop.jpg\" height=\"250\" hspace=\"5\" alt=\"Animorphs #2: The Visitor (May 1st, 2011).\"><\/img><\/a><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hiracdelest.com\/images\/blog\/am2-scholastic-cover-report.jpg\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.hiracdelest.com\/images\/blog\/am2-scholastic-cover-edit.jpg\" height=\"250\" hspace=\"5\" alt=\"Scholastic's preview of Animorphs #1 &#038; #2.\"><\/img><\/a><\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Based on what we&#8217;re seeing here, it looks like Animorphs #2 is following the same style as the first cover. Currently we are only seeing Rachel in mid-morph, but as previously mentioned with #1, you won&#8217;t see the full effects of these lenticular covers until you actually hold one in your hand. The animation is supposed to provide a transition from human to animal when you tilt them from side to side.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Also, it looks like the animal\/tech skin layout is staying. Based on the covers for #1 &#038; #2, it will likely change to whatever skin\/fur\/scales the featured animal on the cover has. This will hopefully be good news for those that weren&#8217;t fans of the first cover. It also looks like the animal choices for the covers are being taken directly from the first print of the series (ie. #1: Lizard, #2: Cat, etc, etc). So expect the same from the rest of the future reprints, with the exception of Megamorphs and Chronicles.<\/p>\n<p align=\"justify\">Animorphs #1 &#038; #2 are set to be out together next year on May 1st, 2011, and the schedule for the following books are already planned for the next 2 years. Here they are:<\/p>\n<blockquote><p>Animorphs #03: The Encounter \u2013 July 2011<br \/>\nAnimorphs #04: The Message \u2013 October 2011<br \/>\nAnimorphs #05: The Predator \u2013 January 2012<br \/>\nAnimorphs #06: The Capture \u2013 April 2012<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p align=\"justify\">Anyway, that&#8217;s all for now. The new cover has been updated in the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.hiracdelest.com\/blog\/?page_id=1021\" target=\"_blank\">pre-order page<\/a> as well (on your right).
