Making Books with Children

I like accordion books because you can stand them up and view all the pages at once. This makes them great for displays and exhibits. Accordion books have a rich history around the world. They are made in many parts of Asia, including China, Japan, Korea, Thailand, India, and Burma. They were also the book form of the Aztecs and Maya in Mexican and Central America. Book artists frequently experiment with the form.
