100 Paper Planes to Fold and Fly

Product Information

Paper Planes is a little different in that it’s a book based on the screenplay by Robert Connolly and Steve Worland. Worland is probably best known at the moment for his adult action novels but he’s also worked in TV and on movies, including Farscape and Bootmen. Connolly came up with the idea when he and Worland realised how few Australian kids movies their daughters had seen, instead it was all Disney and Pixar etc. Whilst those are great movies, they wanted to make something uniquely Australian and it seems like they’ve succeeded here. Paper Planes has a fantastic cast (Sam Worthington, Debra Mailman, David Wenham to name just a few established stars and young actor Ed Oxenbould plays Dylan. Oxenbould is a name most Australian TV aficionados would recognise). Both corners folded in, meeting both the top flap and the previously-made creases. These are ultimately the wings.
