Title: Complex and informative
Review: I love how educational this book is for kids interested in aerodynamics. It contains several pages explaining the physics of flight, and includes experiments that kids can easily perform with their paper airplanes. Some of the instructions are more complex and difficult to follow, making this book better for kids ages 10 and up. Each airplane model covers a two-page spread in the book, making it difficult for sharing (only one type of model can be made at a time). If you want a paper airplane book that is good for younger kids, or that shows instructions for multiple airplane models at once, try the Usborne book of 100 paper airplanes for kids.

Title: Love it! Buy it for gifts
Review: Our son got this book when he was 5. He loved all of the airplanes it made - and I loved all of the helpful papers! He’s 7 now and can follow the directions almost all by himself. We buy it often for his friends for birthday or get well gifts. The instructions are pretty good. The paper it comes with is really helpful. The planes it makes are unique and fly!

Title: Lots of colorful paper airplanes to make!
Review: Bought this as gift for my 7 year old great grandson. Choosing from several different types of airplanes, Grandpa helped with reading the instructions and making these paper airplanes. They glided through the air at better than expected distances, much to the delight of both my great grandsons!

Title: Facts are neat and interesting, instructions for making planes are NOT easy to follow
Review: The book is half interesting facts about the science of flying & history of paper airplanes and half about making the airplanes. The first half is interesting and informative but honestly I bought this for my kids to make cool paper airplanes.The instructions and illustrations for making the airplanes are just plain bad (pun well intended). The book has paper to tear out with designs and fold lines to help you make the planes. There are designs and fold lines with numbers on both sides of paper you tear out. The fold lines are very faint and small. There are several different designs and the instructions for each plane start out with the same first step "With the bottom side down...." The problem is...there is no indication of which side of the paper is the bottom side. Moreover the fold lines are the side of the paper that you're folding over. In other words you can't see the fold line because you're covering it up with paper you're folding over the line. Why not have the fold line on the outside? They have illustrations with each step that provide little to help clarify.A reasonably intelligent adult struggled making the planes, a child has no chance.

Review: You can make 12 kinds of paper airplanes following step-by-step instructions with folding lines on the original sheets. Each airplane has 4 sheets, so that kids can try folding it again and again. Even adults cannot resist playing! 　We are　ready to take off using a runway attached.まさに究極の紙ヒコーキ本！ 折り方はもちろん、デザインも飛び方も遊び方も、ここまで考え尽くされた本に初めて出会った。浮力、気流、折り方、飛ばし方のコツ・・・そのひとつひとつを読み解く作業は英語の学習にもなり、何よりそうして著者の紙ヒコーキへの情熱に触れられるのがいい。大人も子どもと一緒に折っているうちに、我を忘れて童心に返っていることに気づくことだろう。（紙ヒコーキ用紙48枚＋滑走路付き）
