Curiosity about the world defined Lane's childhood. Oh yeah, and lots of fun activities too. From making a zip line out of aircraft cable high among the trees to learning the patient art of catching alligator gar, Lane lived a life of learning. Between the ages of six and eight, like many children, he experimented with making and flying paper airplanes. After hours of testing and playing, he was also learning the basics of flight and flight surfaces. So with the help of his mom, he named his airplanes and created the book. His new publishing career had begun. Now, in its second edition, The Easy to Make Paper Airplane Book includes more fun filled designs that will surely make your child's imagination soar.

The Easy to Make Paper Airplane Book

by Lane Simpson

Created for kids by a kid

This book teaches you to make paper airplanes the old-fashioned way. Each airplane uses regular notebook paper, so there is no special paper to buy. Most of the designs were discovered and created by Lane Simpson when he was 10 years old, and they have been successfully used by children of all ages. Your kids will make flying airplanes right away.

Easy to follow directions and illustrations make this a great book for practice in following directions, coordination, understanding flight surfaces, and design. Discussions on the basics of flight are included.
