額外內容:

森綠媽媽用後感想是,Usborne 的那一本的摺法較簡單,每隻恐龍只需1張紙便完成,當然仔細度便會小些,而書的圖片也較少,如讀者只需要摺紙方法,這本也是好的選擇。CICO Books 的那一本,圖片的吸引度較高,摺紙的難度和恐龍種類有較多選擇,但難度較高的恐龍在初學者也真是有些難度,有些會需要兩張彩紙完成,適合對書本有較高要求的讀者。希望森綠的意見能幫助讀者。

~.~.~.~.~.~.~ Book Review in English ~.~.~.~.~.~.

Both SumLook's sons are the fans of Dinosaurs.

Since the younger one would like to do some paper folding of dinosaurs, I have done some research online to find out which Dinosaurs paper folding books is good to purchase.

I have narrowed done to 2 books:
1. Origami Dinosaurs (Publisher: Usborne)
2. How to Make Paper Dinosaurs (Publisher: CICO Books)

Let's start with Origami Dinosaurs by Usborne
(Please click this link to see the details in our video https://youtu.be/6OX9oyOT1D8)

Publisher: Usborne
ISBN-13: 978-1474956277
SumLook Rating: 8 / 10

Types of Dinosaurs:
The book includes 8 paper dinosaurs:
1.Brontosaurus
2.Triceratops
3.Kronosaurus
4.Spinosaurus
5.Pterodactyl
6.Velociraptor
7.Stegosaurus
8.Tyrannosaurus

Folding paper:
The book includes 75 colorful folding papers of 2 different sizes. The papers are colorful and there are 4-5 papers of different patterns for each dinosaur. What makes their folding papers outstanding is that there are guiding dashlines on the paper, which makes it easier for users to follow the folding instructions.

Folding Instructions and difficulty:
Most paper folding books share a common issue that it is hard to explain some 3D instructions by using words or arrows; sometimes the users need to guess how to get to the next step. In this book, the instructions are shown by drawings, which are quite clear and not hard to understand.

Extra information:
The book includes only the folding instructions with no extra information

Price:
GBP 7.99

Now Let's look at How to make Paper Dinosaurs by CICO Books
(Please click this link to see the details in our video https://youtu.be/CDv9u-dH59M)

Written by Mari Ono & Hiroaki Takai
Publisher: CICO Books
ISBN-13 : 978-1782496335
SumLook Rating: 8.5 / 10

Types of Dinosaurs:
This book includes 25 paper dinosaurs, sorted into 4 categories:
1.Fun Dinosaurs
2.Big Dinosaurs
3.Sky Dinosaurs
4.Marine Dinosaurs

Folding paper:
The book includes 50 colorful papers; there are about 2 papers for each dinosaur.

Folding Instructions and difficulty:
Most paper folding books share a common issue that it is hard to explain some 3D instructions by using words or arrows; sometimes the users need to guess how to get to the next step. In this book, the instructions are shown by real photos, which are quite clear and relatively easy to understand. Regarding difficulty of folding, there are different levels depending on the type of dinosaur; some are rather easy while some dinosaurs require 2 pieces of paper to finish.

Extra information:
There is a brief introduction about each dinosaur, with colorful pictures. There is also a rating of difficulty of folding.

Price:
GBP 12.99

SumLook's opinion on these 2 books:
Origami Dinosaurs by Usborne provides easier way to fold the same type of dinosaur. For each dinosaur, only 1 piece of paper is needed. Certainly, that also means the dinosaur will show less details. The book also includes fewer pictures. If the reader/user wants only the folding instructions, this book is a good choice.
As for How to make Paper Dinosaurs by CICO, the book shows rather attractive pictures of the completed paper dinosaurs, along with rating of difficulty, and the book includes also more kinds of dinosaurs. However, for the more difficult dinosaurs, it might be a bit hard for a beginner; some dinosaurs require 2 pieces of paper to complete. This book is more suitable for reader/user who has higher expectation for the paper dinosaurs or the book itself.
Hope my information help :)
