On Folded Wings
Michael Weinstein takes people's innate interest in folding a piece of paper and launching it into the air and turns it into a collection showcasing paper-based flying machines that have to be seen to be believed. This isn't just a series of folding instructions, though On Folded Wings explains the whys behind paper airplanes, and teaches readers about flight and aviation pioneers, too. --School Library JournalMost of us have folded a simple paper airplane at one time or another, but few of us have folded the intricate, extraordinary airplanes found in On Folded Wings, Michael Weinstein's second collection of paper airplane patterns. The step-by-step instructions for folding each airplane are excellent, and the information on flight and profiles of aviation pioneers, which explain the whys behind paper airplanes, are fascinating and educational. --Library JournalOn Folded Wings is a gem, highly recommended as an educational tool and as plain fun and games. --Tony Miksak, wordsonbooks.blogspot.com
