Title: The Strange Case of the Origami Yoda
Author: Tom Angleberger
Year: 2010
Genre: fiction
Age: 4th grade - 8th grade
Summary: Sixth-grader Tommy and his friends describe their interactions with a paper finger puppet of Yoda, worn by their weird classmate Dwight, as they try to figure out whether or not the puppet can really predict the future. Includes instructions for making Origami Yoda. (summary from Follett Titlewave)Review: Tommy has a big dilemma, and only Origami Yoda can solve it.... Or can he? This book has some great humor and wit to it. I especially loved the drawings that illustrate it because they look so very middle school. The characters are true to life middle schoolers as well. And as a bonus, you can make your own Origami Yoda with the directions in the back.
I recommend this book to middle school boys.
