Description

The most phenomenal discovery of our time becomes the greatest adventure of all time. Now you can create your very own Jurassic Park in the comforts of your home! 'Dinogami' is a delightful and amusing collection of origami dinosaurs that will appeal to children and adults alike. Prehistoric favourites include a brooding Brontosaurus, a feisty triceratops and a ravaging Pterosauria. A menacing T-Rex would impress the most discerning pint-sized Paleontologist. A brief profile accompanies each project to make the learning process fun and easy whilst thorough step-by-step instructions guide through the fold process from start to finish. In addition to dinosaurs, other projects in the book include ancient palm trees, Neanderthal Man, a volcano and fire. For those new to origami, a section about paper and folding symbols make the process a breeze. A classification chart and dateline will keep you current and on top of your dinotrivia. With a bounty of fun-loving projects and vibrant photographs, the projects are not just folded forces of nature, but origami favourites which are destined classics. Suffice to say, it's dino-mite!
