December 2016　　New! Click here to view animation   November 2016　     photo by Nobuo Aoki （NOA) Here is the display I made for the 23rd Origami Carnival. I am proud of my unique library scene even though it did not win a prize. My title is, "Quiet, There's a Library for Animals". I was inspired by the book "Quiet, There's a Canary in the Library" by Don Freeman. As you can see in the photograph, my fingers gave life to many cute origami animals. There is a male lion reading the book "Easy Embroidery". A mother panda is reading "The Peach Boy" to her baby. A tall giraffe is reading the poem "Giraffe" by Michio Mado. The librarian is a smiling teddy bear who is reading stories about peace to an attentive group that includes bunnies, chicks, puppies, and an elephant. On the bookshelf there are several books titled "No War". I am praying for a world where there are no wars and where all people can live in peace.
