Easy Origami for Beginners
by: Michael G. LaFosse

Easy Origami for Beginners is appropriate for any age, for as young as about 5 and on up. You'll need to be able to fold your paper at the appropriate spot and crease as needed.

Here is a list of what you can create with this book:

Teacup
Glider
Seahorse
Frame
Fishes
Flowers
Doll
Ducks
Crane
Pinwheel
Balloon
Firefly
Pagoda
Box
Jumping Frog
Sailboat
Butterfly

The book gives you an introduction to Origami and the history of paper folding; a description of the types of paper you will find the easiest to use. You are given a key to the symbols used in Origami, so you can follow along in the book and know what each symbol means.

Many thanks to Tuttle Publishing and EdelweissPlus for the complimentary copy, I was under no obligation to post a review.

This book is arranged as 16 projects, each teaching another level of the craft of origami. It comes with an instructional CD as well, which I think is a very good idea.

Well, I'm never going to be able to do the complicated ones in here, but I think I can do simple ones in cloth, which is what I wanted.
