Both beginners and veteran folders will love this instructive volume and its clear directions and crisp diagrams. Readers learn the basic folds, one at a time, for 27 simple models (frog, star, piano, penguin), 12 intermediate designs (pig, kangaroo, camel), and 5 advanced models (deer, waterwheel, elephant, bee).
The objects are fantastic, but the folding techniques use simple triangles and squares, pyramids and cubes. Master spiral designs, multi-pointed stars, 9-sided gift boxes, and 12-sided gyroscopic whirligigs. More elaborate designs are 8-sided flying saucers, whimsical crows in the grass, gorgeous nested boxes and sculptured gift containers.
