SUMMARY- When I saw the words "flip book" I was so there(I LOVE flip books). I don't know why more craft books don't use their wasted margins for this. This sort of animation really rocks because it will sit nicely on your bookshelf until you need it, tuck into your craft tote, and NEVER needs a battery or working internet connection with a large enough screen to see it by. Flip books ROCK. This book rocks for a couple of reasons besides the animated tutorials on basic folds(which ROCK). Mr. Collins also has a sense of humor and knows his subject really well. Combine the two and you get this cool amusing craft book that will teach you a great deal about the nuts and bolts of paper airplanes. I highly recommend this one!
