Product Description Wondrous One Sheet Origami is a how-to book full of beautiful origami designs covering a wide range of folding levels from simple to high intermediate, with more emphasis on the latter.

Features • Richly illustrated full-color book with clear, crisp diagrams following international standard, and an abundance of photographs of finished models• Select designs hand-picked by the author based on social media responses• Most of the designs incorporate color-change, a technique showing both sides of paper for enhanced beauty Review "Meenakshi Mukerji's work is both intricate and lovely. She's greatly respected in the origami world, one of the well-known world leaders in modular origami. Her books offer a nice exposition of the mathematical elements, but you're not being hit over the head with math lessons. You learn things without even realizing that you have." –Dr. Robert J. Lang "Meenakshi Mukerji is one of today's masters of modular origami, designs comprised of multiple pieces of paper. She also brings her ingenuity and creativity to designs made from a single piece of paper. Among the most appealing aspects of her single sheet work is the way she subtly manipulates a purely geometric form to fold a flower, a leaf, a butterfly, or card suits." –Peter Engel "Meenakshi Mukerji's new book Wondrous One Sheet Origami is not simply an origami instruction book. It is a celebration of the myriad wonders of the natural world and the infinite variety of their color and form. Mukerji recreates this rich world with her ingenious sense of design and shares it with readers using clear, accessible instructions. A valuable addition to any origami library!" –Meher McArthur "The Wondrous One Sheet Origami by Meenakshi Mukerji is exactly the kind of thing our members like to fold. The more advanced fractal designs at the end of the book found a lot of interest, and some of the flower folds were so inviting that many wanted to fold them right away" –Anna Kastlunger, Origami Society of Austria "This is an updated and extended edition of a book that was first published in 2013. The 35 models range from simple designs to complex recursives, and there are a number of variations of the classics, [. . .] Many of the models were designed by Meenakshi Mukerji herself, but there are also contributions from Evan Zodl, Dasa Serova, Christiane Bettens, and Roman Diaz/Endre Somos. [. . .] The second edition includes 39 additional pages and 15 new models, [ . . .] The diagrams are clear and generally easy to follow, and there's advice on experimentation so you can create variations of some of the flower designs. [. . .] The print quality is high, and there are full-colour photographs of many of the models. In conclusion, this book is definitely worth adding to your collection [. . .] This edition also available in ebook form for the more technologically minded." –Stephen Hill, British Origami Society "Profusely illustrated with clear step-by-step instructions, Wondrous One Sheet Origami is thoroughly 'user friendly' in tone, commentary, organization and presentation. While especially and unreservedly recommended for school, community and academic library Origami instructional reference collections, it should be noted for the personal lists of students, professionals, and non-specialist general readers with an interest in the subject." –The Crafts Shelf, Midwest Book Review About the Author Meenakshi Mukerji (Adhikari) was introduced to origami in early childhood by her uncle Bireshwar Mukhopadhyay. She rediscovered origami in its modular form as an adult in 1995, quite by chance, when a friend, Shobha Prabakar, took her to a modular origami class taught by Doug Philips.
