This charming book, which was intended for children between the ages of five and twelve, includes child-friendly instructions for accordion-folding pieces of paper, tracing the designs on the uppermost panels, and cutting around the outlines. Suggestions for using the paper chains to decorate objects or to incorporate into table settings appear at the end.
