She made a little hmm sound before taking out a sheet of paper in a deep emerald green, sliding it across the table to Claudine.
"I can show you how to make a bird if you want? It's pretty easy and when you pull the tail, the wings flap!" Which, in her opinion, was the fun part of it.
Just the squid was being difficult?
Claudine thought that all of origami was difficult. All the folding and the creasing… it was easy enough to get confused and spoil the entire thing. But what did that little hmmm mean? The older girl eyed Maya, wondering what was going on in that pretty head. Oh. Claudine beamed as the paper came her way. “I really like this colour,’’ she told Maya, setting her feet on the floor and her sketchpad on the table.
A flapping bird origami? “I’m all in,’’ the seventh year said enthusiastically. “What do we do first?” She was going to pay full attention here. |
