Book Overview
Paul Johnson has produced an approach to literacy development that is both astonishingly original and powerfully stimulating. Using simple, easy-to-follow instructions, supported throughout with clear diagrams and examples of children's work, he demonstrates how scores of different book forms can be made from a single sheet of paper. Moreover, all that is required to produce most of the fifty-odd book forms and variations described here in detail are paper, pens, and a pair of scissors.

This is a fantastic teaching resource. There so many great projects to try and all the children I've made books with have been thrilled with their results.

What an excellent resource for any teacher. The activities are interesting and thought-provoking. My students were so excited about creating their very own books!
Holistic learning experience for the child.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 26 years ago
An excellent presentation of the holistic learning experience book arts can be for the child. Creating a book calls upon skills that will stand the child in good stead throughout life: planning, collaborating, discussing, consensus building. Also, technological, writing, visual, and design skills are challenged and strengthened.
