5.0 out of 5 stars An Excellent "Next Step" for the Novice, February 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Origami for the Enthusiast: Step-By-Step Instructions in over 700 Diagrams (Paperback)
This was my first intermediate origami book, and at the time, some of the beautiful, intricate pieces- like the insect- seemed like herculean challenges. If you're tired of cranes and boxes, this book has the pieces to ease you into the more challenging models, as well as critters to amaze your friends, frustrate your fingers, or simply delight you with the joy of learning new techniques.

5.0 out of 5 stars What a great beggining!!, January 7, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Origami for the Enthusiast: Step-By-Step Instructions in over 700 Diagrams (Paperback)
I had done only some tsuru birds when I got this book. I found it very useful for the begginer that, just like myself, is interested in getting acquainted with origami signaling. Its models vary from the simplest to the most challeging ones, like a pegasus or a bug. Really worthwhile

4.0 out of 5 stars one of my best books, November 17, 2002
By 
madyagus (montes claros, MG Brazil) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Origami for the Enthusiast: Step-By-Step Instructions in over 700 Diagrams (Paperback)
I was 14 when I bought this origami book and Iwas simply astonished with the variety and the complexity of the animals(well some of them)
but now iIam much more experient than other days and noticed that this is only an "average"complex book.
there are some jewels on this book and also some weird models
the elephant is my all-time favorite model,and the insects(except the bbeetle)are amazing
but geting back to the bad parts .. the pegasus looks like a winged dog,I think the rhino's head is very strange,the whale is very stylized and it's impressive how every toucan that john montroll designs don't look like a real one
but afterall this is a cool book if you are tired of those simple models they teach on TV
