　　What can you make with pieces of paper? Look at Chen Yiyan's work! The 14-year-old boy in Hangzhou Foreign Language School has an amazing talent for paper-folding. He has folded a “fantasy world" with his hands.

So far, his fantasy world has many members, such as monsters and robots. He made his favorite work last year. It was a paper dragon that had almost 2,000 steps.

To their joy, their school sponsored it. With the encouragement and the money provided, they had a paper-folding class every Wednesday afternoon. The club soon attracted a lot of students.  Now it has more than 20 members. They showed their works and taught other students how to fold paper. On February 14th this year, the club also held a speech for the kids in Wenzhou Children's Library.
