Description

Paper Modelling was assigned by Charlotte Mason in her schools and programmes for children aged around seven or eight years of age but can be enjoyed by students of all ages who want to learn this incredibly versatile, not to mention valuable, handicraft. The book contains more than forty projects, enough content to be spread over two whole school years, and serves as an excellent follow-up from Charlotte Mason Beehive’s publication of Paper Folding, by H. G. Paterson.

This new edition of M. Swannell’s work includes the following prominent features:

• Spiral bound for ease of use.
• A new introduction, including term-by-term rotation.
• Step by step photographs accompany every project.
• An updated materials list.
• Metric measurements.
• Instructions written in plain and simple language.
• All the original illustrations.
• Updated technical diagrams, which have been redrawn.
• Comprehensive tutorials on drawing, cutting, and folding.
• Two tiers of a Materials Supply Pack, including everything you need to complete the course, can also be purchased.
• Exclusive Instructor’s Diagram Templates, containing 1:1 scale templates for every model in the book, is also available.

For those in search of an authentic copy to this book, hardcover copies, republished in its original format, albeit with an new introduction by Brittney McGann, are available from Living Books Library.
