Origami Animals - School Library Journal
This new series walks readers through creating their own cute, detailed origami animals from around the world using only a sheet—or sometimes more—of paper. A table of contents, introduction and instruction key including symbols with corresponding folds opens each title. There are five origami designs in each book, and the instructions for each design include illustrations demonstrating folding techniques as well as a brief description. Final steps show the finished product with additional designs such as facial features. Each project includes a difficulty rating as well as a bit of information about the real-life animal readers are recreating. Projects sometimes break from “traditional origami,” which the series explains is created by folding—and not cutting—one sheet of paper. A small glossary of non-highlighted vocabulary words, additional resources, and an index are included at the back of each title. VERDICT A fun, if unconventional, origami series focused on animals.
