(Based on 1 review)
Would you like to learn how to easily fold amazing origami models, and then entertain with them? Robert E. Neale's Folding Money Fooling contains 13 easily constructed models, all using paper money. Robert's verbal and pictorial descriptions make learning every detail of these models easy.
From Robert E. Neale's Preface: "This book contains twenty new and novel models that perform in these amusingly unexpected ways; all are folded from dollar bills. They are created for adults, but many will entertain children-especially the finger puppets in Puppet Poetry and the tale illustrated with many different shapes in A Boy's Modest Adventure. A rabbit pops out of a top hat in Bunny Bill, a model popular among magicians."

This is not great magic but it is great fun and entertainment. I have already reviewed Neale's Bunny Bill which is sold separately. It is a great giveaway that people hold on to. In this book he adds a number of other fun items. The appearing cobra from the basket and the flapping butterfly are both impressive and get good reactions. The directions are detailed though some of the models are complicated enough that it may take a few practice runs to master. Some of the items are not worthwhile but there is enough fun stuff to make the book worth getting.
Remember this is not great magic but fun surprising items that can be made from any crisp bill. If you want an entertaining interlude away from the heavy magic, this is it. It can entertain both adults and young children. Finding something that spans that range is rare and makes this an item I use and recommend.
