Synopsis:
Remember folding paper into a hand-held fortune teller, paper airplane or secret note square? Whether a fortune teller novice or a seasoned paper-folding expert, the new book World's Best Origami challenges readers with more than 100 of the most unique and best-loved origami patterns ever created.
Professional origami artist, Nick Robinson, guides readers through the process of folding paper.

Each diagram is clearly displayed with easy-to-understand folding instructions for a perfect outcome every time.
The book teaches readers how to:

I have tried origami in the past and I've never been successful, I wonder if the book could help someone who is all thumbs?

My Not-So-Bebe-Girl is part Japanese, and has a total fascination with anything Asian - we have origami papers, do tatami, I've hand-sewn formal and casual kimonos for her - I think that if Bebe Boy James knew that with practice, he could fold an airplane, he would join in too! Thanks for the giveaway!
