Many-Page Accordion Book Take a sheet of 8 ½ x 11 inch paper and fold it in half (hamburger or horizontal) once, then once more. Next, fold the paper in half vertically twice to form a small rectangle. Unfold the paper and you will have 16 sections. Cut along the folds under the top three sections on the right. Then start from the left, and cut the fold under the left three sections. Finish by cutting from the right under the right three sections. Starting with the top right section, fold back and forth, accordion-style. When you get to the end of the row, fold down to the next row, and continue until you have created a little square book. You will notice that there are 3 places where the book has a fold (two at the top and one at the bottom). Put glue inside these sections and it will make the book easy to open and close. You can make this book into an alphabet book by making a cover and putting one letter on each page except the last, which will contain Y and Z. Denise White, 2007
