Story-Gami Kit: Create Origami Using Folding Stories

The joy in folding origami is often found in the deceptively simple magic of transforming a single piece of paper into a recognizable object. Frequently, though, the steps it takes to transform paper from one dimension to two can be frustrating.
Story-gami is an innovative new kit from renowned origami teachers Michael LaFosse and Richard Alexander. Combining a book and DVD instructions, LaFosse and Alexander have created entire storylines around Righty (right hand) and Lefty (left hand) and their adventures climbing mountains, going on boat rides, flying kites and hanging out with bunnies. Each story's end results in a finished piece of origami, like an elegant butterfly, a jumping frog, or a flapping bird. Through the mnemonic of storytelling LaFosse and Alexander make folding these twenty sculptures easy and fun, allowing anyone to find the magic inherent in creating something beautiful out of a simple piece of paper.
