Book 1 excerpt

 

The big question: Is Origami Yoda real?

Well, of course he’s real. I mean, he’s a real finger puppet made out of a real piece of paper.

But I mean: Is he REAL? Does he really know things? Can he see the future? Does he use the Force?

Or is he just a hoax that fooled a whole bunch of us at McQuarrie Middle School?

It’s REALLY important for me to figure out if he’s real or not. Because I’ve got to decide whether to take his advice or not and if I make the wrong choice I’m doomed! I don’t want to get into all that now, so for now let’s just say it’s about a girl and whether or not I should risk making a fool of myself for her.

Origami Yoda says to do it, but if he’s wrong … total humiliation.

….

Oh yeah, one other thing I almost forgot about: Dwight.

Dwight is the guy who carries Origami Yoda around on his finger.

The strangest thing about Origami Yoda is that he is so wise even though Dwight is a total loser.

Hello Mr. Angleberger,
I have not read your book, but I would like to thank you for re-introducing Star Wars to elementary and middle-school students! I lived in ignorance of it’s epicness and the force until 7th grade (when a friend lent me the first 2-3 [not the original few :( ] ), and I adored “the worst ones” as my father calls them. Anyway, thanks for spreading the epicity of Star Wars!
