An attractive, accessible, well-designed book that includes paper-folding techniques and many different models to encourage a variety of readers. (Kristine Moruci Resource Links, Vol. 17 No. 5 2012-10-01)
The level of attention to detail attests to the author's personal dedication to this art. Aware of the popularity of airplanes, he has included reproducible "Designs for Airplanes" to dress up the completed models....Both children and adults will enjoy the delights of creating intricate designs from a square of plain paper. Go ahead and fold that basic 'Dart,' and then have fun challenging your skills and imagination... Highly Recommended. (Gillian Richardson Canadian Materials 2012-03-02)
All of the entries feature pictures of finished models in arty tableaux, and particularly clear two-color diagrams that use standard origami notation.... A collection in which even a string of cutout paper dolls is rated Intermediate will have plenty to offer novice folders and the author's lighthearted fanciful outlook gives this extensive sampler a bright and inviting tone.
