'Fold-and-Paste Origami Storybook' by Florence Sakade was published by Charles E Tuttle Company in Vermont and Tokyo in 1964. It is a book of children's stories illustrated by paperfolds. Unlike the author's previous similar work, this one does not contain folded copies of the paperfolds, but provides decorative pages onto which designs folded by the reader can be glued. A pack of suitable paper was supplied with the work.

I have not reproduced the stories or the decorative pages. This page only provides details of the folding instructions.

Many of the designs are cut and/or decorated (with eyes).

A full copy of the work can be accessed online here.
