(2) K-3 Illustrated by G. Brian Karas. Joey is entranced when Mrs. Takimoto demonstrates origami to his class and begins practicing on everything he can find ("'This folding has to stop,' said Mom"). Despondent, Joey goes to his favorite restaurant, Muy Mexicana, and discovers folding cloth napkins. Gentle humor keeps the story from being preachy; Karas's gouache and pencil illustrations show a cheery multicultural neighborhood. Origami instructions appended.
