Industry Reviews
"Ultimate Origami for Beginners is not your average beginner's guide. It includes a substantial booklet with easy-to-follow directions for somewhat more advanced beginner items--an oxymoron I realize--but I say that because this is not the cup, the crane, the box. The booklet includes flowers, animals (baby dinosaur, seahorse), airplanes, and dollar folds. Not to worry, though, the instructions are thoroughly illustrated and described. Plus if you're really stuck, there's a DVD guide to take you through the steps one-by-one." --8asians.com blog
