Great for the Beginner
What a great book! The author explains how to accpomplish the different types of folds used in the ' Introduction.'
So when you go to make one of the models, you'll understand the directions better, than if you just tried it on your own.
Also, all the origami models in this book perform an action.
It has all skill levels of difficulty.
An awesome book to get to learn from and practice with. Besides, you get to make some neat models.
FYI - Just remember to read the Intro.
ORIGAMI IN ACTION: PAPER TOYS THAT FLY, FLAP, GOBBLE,& EXPLO
I BOUGHT THIS BOOK FOR MY ONE NIECE, SHE HAS THE OTHER ONE BY: ROBERT J. LANG. THIS WAS WHAT SHE WANTED FOR EASTER. SO ALL I CAN SAY IS: FROM LISTENING TO HER, SHE HAS ALOT OF FUN WITH THE BOOK SHE HAS, THE PROJECTS ARE EASY, ALL YOU NEED IS PAPER. I THINK IT IS GREAT BECAUSE, A CHILD HAS TO USE THEIR MINDS, & NO BATTERIES, NOTHING TO PLUG IN, ONE OF THE FEW ITEMS OUT THERE, WHERE A CHILD CAN LET THEIR IMAGINATION GO WILD & THEY DO IT THEMSELVES.
Fascinating... but DEFINITELY not for beginners
If you're just starting out in origami, I really suggest averting from this book. No, really. Unless you start off taking origami very seriously and have your steel resolve handy, this book will only serve to discourage. There aren't a lot of easy designs in this volume, and there's plenty of designs towards the end that are obvious expert-level pieces. I'd go get a book that had a sizable section of traditional origami designs first, then I'd go pick a copy of this up. It's terribly fun once you have any idea what you're doing !
