About This Book

A children's craft collection of twelve full-color cut-out figures accompanied by clear, step-by-step folding and pasting directions that produce reversible, stand-up paper characters which change between paired scenes. Each project supplies front and back views, marked fold and paste lines, and practical tips for turning and adjusting the finished piece so it will stand firmly. Examples include nursery-rhyme and folk-pairings such as a girl and her lamb, Humpty Dumpty and his egg, and a mariner with a parrot.

How to Make Mary and Her Lamb

Cut out the two double figures. Fold on the dotted lines marked A A A A so that the upper part of each of the four figures projects forward as shown in the small picture X. Fold on the lines marked B B where the figures join each other so that the colored surfaces face outward, and then, beginning at the feet, paste the front view of Mary to the back view of the lamb as far as the dotted lines A A. In the same way paste the front view of the lamb to the back view of Mary—as far up as the lines A A. Now paste together the front and back of the upper part of Mary. Then paste together the front and back of the upper part of the lamb. Cut off the letters A A A A B B.

Now if the lamb is held by the feet and turned inside out, Mary will appear, and vice versa. MAKE ALL THE OTHER CHANGELINGS IN PRECISELY THE SAME WAY.

The Changelings will stand alone. If they do not stand firmly after you have turned them, pinch them slightly along the dotted lines that were marked A A A A.

Look carefully at the finished Changeling in the front of the book. It will help you to make all the Magic Changelings
