Joel Stern has enjoyed origami since his childhood. A native of Omaha, Nebraska, he has conducted many origami workshops for all ages in camps, schools, community centers, and libraries. Joel is also the author of Origami Games, Animated Origami Faces, Jewish Holiday Origami, as well as Washington Pops!, a collection of do-it-yourself pop-up cards of famous buildings in Washington, D.C. His origami and pop-up creations have been exhibited in the U.S., Japan, and Israel.
One of the great things about origami is that the papers are small, light, and easy to transport. Just perfect to take with you when travelling! Pull them out when waiting for transfers, during flights, on the train, bus, or even while out at a restaurant to keep the kids busy while waiting for their meals. --Castle View Academy blog
