Helpful Score: 2
I have looked through dozens of origami books and this is the best one I have seen. The directions are illustrated with four-color photos and instructions are excellent allowing you to easily and successfully complete all the projects (unlike many origami books with criptic drawings and incomplete instructions that leave you hanging midway through a project.
Also, the variety of projects is excellent both in subject matter (from games to decorations to practical things you can use) and levels of difficulty from simple projects that are complete in a flash to some that take hours to complete, but are still well worth it.)
My daughter and I continue to come back to this book for many projects and have made many wonderful things for ourselves and as gifts. If I could own only 1 origami book, this would be the one!
