The included paper has appropriate imagery on it, so you need to select the proper sheet for each design." --British Origami Society magazine "Clearly aimed at younger children, this kit is slightly reminiscent of the 'instant transfer' sets from my youth, you get a foldout street plan to display your models on and a wide range of bright stickers with which to decorate them. The included paper has appropriate imagery on it, so you need to select the proper sheet for each design." -British Origami Society magazine "Here is a kit to engage the kids in creative folding to produce some of the vehicles that are found in the city. Considering children's fascination with moving cars, flying aircraft, and sirening fire trucks, these models should attract their interest. Originator Joel Stern has written a clear-cut instruction guide filled with diagrams, colorful illustrations, and photos to guide the user to construct the origami vehicles and place them within this paper-sculpted city." -Seattle Book Review blog
