Overall Impression

Cute book - with everything you need to build a nice doll-house (including the houses themselves!). In the beginning of the book there are photos of various household and neighborhood scenes compounded from the models. Too bad there are no indications to sizes, which would've helped fold the models to scale. All in all, a useful little book.

There are 62 Origami Designs in Doll's House with Origami:
