5.0 out of 5 stars Challanging and Rewarding, January 11, 2001
By

This review is from: North American Animals in Origami (Paperback)
North American Animals in Origami is one of my favorites. While most of the models took me a few stabs at the results are very rewarding. Montroll's style and clearly defined directions make his models a joy and challenge to fold. Here is the following models in "North American Animals in Origami": Duck, Swan, Heron, Roadrunner, Saguaro Cactus, Prickly-Pear Cactus, Jack Rabbit, Mouse, Armadillo, Bald Eagle, Bighorn Sheep, Bobcat, Great Horned Owl, Quail, Pheasant, Squirrel, Beaver, Black Bear, Coyote, Bison, Raccoon, Deer, Snowy Owl, Musk Ox, and Moose.

5.0 out of 5 stars Instant Classic - just add water!, September 3, 2003

This review is from: North American Animals in Origami (Paperback)
Montroll does it again. This book is full of North American animals (and a couple plants) that are both fun to make, and lifelike (especially wet-folded). The book has a few decent models for all difficulty levels, with the average model probably somewhere between a 2 or 3 star. This book makes use of a few inside-out folded models (that is, the white vs. color plays a key part in the models design (snowy owl, raccoon)). I would recommend this book to all fans of origami, whether an expert or a beginning for some truly unique models. (One of my favorites is the prickly pear cactus, which is great for a wide variety of scenes).

Bottom Line:
Highly Recommended (9.2 / 10)

3.0 out of 5 stars Frustrating, January 27, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: North American Animals in Origami (Paperback)
This book has some really interesting models. I primarily got it for the raccoon, which made me want to rip my hair out. Most origami books I own offer detailed descriptions of the steps in addition to the diagrams. This one depicts the steps, but most steps have no text at all. By the end of the model, some of the steps didn't seem possible. It's not easy to follow at all- poorly written in my opinion.
