10/22/2008 Liz Conrad said: An original story by author Nathaniel Lachenmeyer that feels for all the world like the retelling of an old Japanese folktale. Adults and children alike with delight in the beautiful illustrations and gentle serene story of friendship between the solitary Origami Master and his admirer.
