Karakuri, in Japanese, means mechanism. It can also mean how something works. For example, someone could say, "the karakuri of a magic trick..." It also is the name for small toys that move due to simple machines and mechanics. In Karakuri: How to Make Mechanical Paper Models That Move, it explains this and much more. There is a section with colored diagrams and understandable examples that explain the simple mechanics used in these toys. This book also describes, in easy to understand English, how to make these traditional Japanese toys.
