Star Fleet Paper Airplanes for Kids by Andrew Dewar

Paper airplane designer Andrew Dewar has done it again!
In his new book, he presents an amazing collection of highperformance space planes for kids who are fascinated by space
travel. Step-by-step instructions show you how to fold each of
the sci-fi-themed planes, which are designed to fly beautifully
with every launch!
The book opens with a primer on the principles of flight so kids learn about the forces that enable
airplanes to fly and how to coax the best performance from their paper models. They’ll have fun
practicing with these futuristic paper spaceplanes—doing loops, barrel rolls, glides and dives!
The 12 planes in this book include the following easy-to-fold models:
• The single-winged Helix, designed to ferry crew members to space and back
• The Stargo freighter, a spacious craft with great performance due to its forward canards
• The Shard, the command flagship and pride of the Star Fleet
• And many more!
The book comes complete with 32 tear-out perforated sheets that have folding lines printed on them
for quick and foolproof folding. It also has a pull-out moonbase poster which kids can spread on the
floor and use to park their space planes and practice precision landing maneuvers.
Andrew Dewar was born in Toronto, Canada, and received a degree in Journalism and Library
Science before moving to Japan in 1988. There he rediscovered his childhood love of designing and
flying paper airplanes and has now published over 40 paper crafting books and kits. He teaches
paper airplane workshops and gives seminars at schools, libraries, community centers and museums.
