10/31/2021 ~ Reasonable intro to paper crafts. Projects include origami, paper airplanes, containers, hats, decorations, snowflakes, items made with strips and curls of paper, and notecards.

Sadly, this item is no longer available in hardcover, so I won't be adding it to my school library.

Accessible, wide ranging, and inspiring. This was a fun afternoon for all of us. The paper airplane was exceptional.
