Synopsis

Fold and fly your own realistic paper airplanes with this easy origami book and folding papers.

Simple Origami Airplanes presents a collection of realistic origami paper airplanes from well-known author and paper aviation expert Andrew Dewar. Dewar has spent decades perfecting the art of folding easy paper airplanes that both look great and fly well. Simple Origami Airplanes features models with sturdy wings and fuselages―these designs are so perfectly balanced that a gentle throw results in amazing flights, time after time.

All the origami projects are designed to be simple enough to be considered "origami-for-kids" projects, and can be assembled by beginning origami folders. Paper airplanes are a great way for children to learn origami and gain an interest and appreciation for this fascinating art form. The flashy folding papers already have plane images printed on them, making the finished origami planes look as awesome as they fly.

This origami book contains:

• Full-colored origami assembly book
• Step-by-step instructions and diagrams
• 16 original design projects for planes
• 60 two-sided origami folding papers
• A variety of colors with printed fold lines

Fun and accessible for both the paper crafts novice and the more season paper folder, this wonderfully giftable origami book gets you started right away and is a great value. The pre-colored origami paper is ready to fold―No scissors or glue required!

Origami airplane projects include:

• Flying Wing
• Beta Jet
