Now, some other minor cons about the book depending on how you see it: A uniform video format would make it look more professional. The videos could improve with good lighting and an angle with the crafter behind the camera, instead of the sideways style that they've employed for some of them. I feel that the book complements the videos as not every video is as clear due to the camera angle or lighting. I found that the video instructions were more easy to understand(let's be real, video tutorials are a better tool for teaching handcrafts). There was also a QR code for those links. I liked the legend for origami symbols and the link to the video tutorials included in this book. There were 2 other projects that needed the help of the video to finish a step.

Also, I did not find the instructions on how to fold a paper in thirds anywhere in the legend, as stated. You also need a larger piece of paper or you'll struggle in the final steps. I had to watch step 10-12 many times to figure it out(and the video was mirrored differently from the book instructions!). However, the hinged box was quite frustrating and not taught well enough. I'd say this book is geared towards the intermediate level. There are 2-3 projects that are simple, and the rest intermediate.
If you're a beginner, I think you'll find this book mostly difficult. Thank you to Dover Publications and NetGalley for providing me an advanced reader copy for an honest review!
