About the Book

Butterflies, speedboats, and penguins, who would have thought so much could be made out of paper? These step-by-step guides offer origami projects with a range of difficulty levels. Clear illustrations of folds and photos of the finished product are included in each fun project.

Review :
If you have mastered the basics of origami and need a challenge, this fourth and final book in the "Origami" series is for you. "If you've never tried origami, practice the skills in the easier books first. The models in this book have more steps, which require greater skill to complete," Alexander so aptly states. Included in the book are a description of materials that can be used for the origami projects, a page with detailed photographs that illustrate the basic folds needed and a page diagramming the folding symbols. The multi-step models include a speedboat that can really float on water, a beautiful lily and a three-dimensional picture frame. Intricate animal models are also featured, including catnip the cat, a lop-eared rabbit, a crested bird and a classic frog. Each of these projects requires an excellent knowledge of the basic folds and consists of many more folds and steps than the earlier books in the series. Even with detailed photographs and diagrams, younger children might become frustrated with these projects unless a skilled older child or adult is assisting. Fun facts about origami, table of contents, glossary, index and resource pages including Internet links and books add to the value of this book.-- "Children's Literature Comprehensive Database" These four books will take children ages 8 and older through steps to complete origami designs. Each volume begins with an introduction, a materials page, and a how-to page that contains photos and written instructions for practicing the variety of folds used throughout the book. The books explore a range of objects to make, from a simple paper cup in the Easy volume to a crested bird in the Difficult book. Every project has color photos of the steps with caption instructions below and a picture of the finished product. Many of my third-grade students had success with Easy Origami and Not-so-Easy Origami. Paper cups, bookmarks, and a few airplane models were evident all over our classroom. Students followed the directions without teacher assistance and instructed one another. I am sure they could advance to the more difficult editions with more practice and a little patience. Those with origami experience would probably enjoy starting with the advanced-level texts. These books would be wonderful for an enrichment or extension activity after studying geometry. The origami books would also work well in an after-school program or camp.-- "Teaching Children Mathematics, National Council of Teachers of Mathematics"
