Synopsis

Paper is incredible stuff. It's easy to cut, but incredibly strong. It's disposable, but can last for centuries. It can stand as stiff as a board, pop up like a spring, or float like a leaf. And its invention changed the world forever.

Perfect for kids, parents, and educators, Paper Inventions is a project-based book with full color illustrations, step-by-step instructions, supply lists, and templates that allow you to follow along with the book or devise something entirely new. Each chapter features new projects that will challenge and intrigue everyone, from beginning to experienced Makers.

In this book, you'll learn to make:

  • A light-up paper cat that shows how switches and sensors work
  • An action origami robot worm
  • Edible rice paper perfect for secret messages
  • A space rover that moves thanks to paper machinery
  • A paper generator that creates electricity when you tap or rub it
  • Heat-activated paper models that fold themselves
  • A geodesic dome big enough to crawl into--from newspaper!

Review

We write on it. We draw on it. We paint on it. We fold it. We may eventear it into pieces and glue it. But that is just the beginning. What "Make: Paper Inventions: Machines that Move, Drawings that Light Up, and Wearables and Structures You Can Cut, Fold, and Roll" by Kathy Ceceri (Maker Media) highlights is that ordinary paper can beused in an exciting range of high- and low-tech projects that blendscience and art. -- Amy Cowen, sciencebuddies.org

With Make: Paper Inventions, Kathy Ceceri has written a real eye opener. She describes a wealth of great projects, many of which take little preparation and few extra materials: After all, everybody has some paper at home. Just the thing for a rainy weekend at home! -- Bernd Grobauer, Geekdad.com
