Good for beginner-intermediate

This is a great first origami book. Probably the best I have bought for description and pictures. Very easy to understand and complete all projects. Good introduction to modular origami. Best mix I've found in any book.

Practical Origami

This is by far the best origami book I have seen. The illustrations are wonderful, the directions are easy to understand and follow, and there is something here for everyone, from beginner to advanced. I have spent countless hours with this book! There is so much in here to do, including many traditional folds as well as lots of new things, including some modular origami. I teach origami, and recommend this book to all my students!
