review 1: A short story about love. Motherly love. Not only did the paper origami tie it all together but the fact that Jack's mother had such a terrible back-story really made me feel empathy towards her and her son. As I read this I could imagine a cute paper tiger jumping around and pouncing on a water buffalo. While the ending is quite cut short it adds to the "goodness" of the story. Definitely worth the ten minutes it takes to read.
review 2: It was the best story of love you can ever read your heart will feel sorrow and pain but as you read you know she did this out of love for her children knowing that she couldn't speak English she would make these beautiful origami animals that would make your heart pound with joy and laughter. But soon she died and her son fel... moret like and he did nothing out of love for his mother. Until he remade the lion following his mothers creases to bring back in her memories. That we all can relate to less
