I currently live a dual life (not mistaken for a dull wife... which I will never be, thanks). Somehow I ended up an animation director, and Someone who makes paper puppets; and Sometimes it’s a little confusing for me also. This website should help organize it all into an informative plethora of visual (and oral too, if your lucky) stimulation.

Paper Puppet Palooza : Adventures in Making Moveable Art Figures
Coming out this FEB 2009 - Paper Puppet Palooza is an instructional storybook how-to written by Crankbunny on making, designing, and constructing paper puppets. Each chapter in this craft book covers specific techniques and approaches; from paper dolls, marionettes, shadow puppets, toys, to artful gifts. The book also contains templates for each project.
