This review is from: Incredible Action Origami That Really Works (Paperback)

It always pain me to see simple origami models being discarded in favour of the complex ones.

As far as I am concern, if you are really an expert in origami, you need not prove it by folding complex models but prove it by really appreciating the simple ones!

I am a fan of Paul Jackson's works.

In this book, models include twirly copter, tumbler, double vision, waterbomb, jumping frog, jaws, propeller, whip-crack and flapping bird (not the traditional one).

This book makes a good present for the younger ones and to introduce them to origami. With some help from a parent, and some bonding time, this will definitely raise a smile.

I too have enjoyed folding it and teaching it.
