A Little Halloween Storybook
In celebration of HALLOWEEN:
A little "Pocketmod" book.
(A "pocketmod" is a book that is made by cutting and folding a single sheet of paper.)
I have published other "pocketmods" with generic folding instructions.

Fold 1: a "Hotdog Fold"
Fold the paper in half, with the pictures on the outside, as shown.
Use your thumbnail to crease it.
Fold 2: a "hamburger Fold"
Open the paper back up.
Fold in half a second time, this time going the opposite way. Crease.
Open back up.
Fold the "hotdog" Again, Then Fold in One Side.
Re-fold the "hotdog" shape.
Then carefully fold in one side and crease.
Fold in the Other Side.
Fold in the other side and crease.
Open. Fold Again. Cut.
Open it up again.
Repeat the "hamburger fold."

Fold in the cover as shown. Crease.

The next fold will be the two "pages" shown partly lifted here...
Fold Just Two Pages.
From the previous illustration, carefully select just a single layer of paper and bring it over.
Fold the Top Down.
Crease yet again!
