Editorial Reviews

"[Engel's] art subjects range from the wonderfully whimsical to the eminently practical, an outcome to be expected from his philosophical explanation of the appeal of origami ("a playful art and an artful form of play"). Who could resist a plateful of sunny-side up eggs and bacon or the stolidly silent black-and-white penguin? Or not be tempted to use a brightly patterned picture frame of decorative party pinwheels? A minimalist that Ludwig Mies van der Rohe would appreciate." —Booklist

"You'll be amazed as only ten folds produce projects that vary from a house or sailboat to a plate of bacon and eggs. Some projects appeal to the romantic in you, such as valentines or butterflies, while others feature wild animals, such as bats and snakes. If you'd rather try something more unusual, make a rocket ship or a goose with its golden egg." —Examiner.com
