But with enigmatic counsel like Cheetos for everyone you must buy, Yoda keeps the mystery alive.
Tommy confronts the ethical dilemma of standing up for the weird kid and the angst of school dances: My hands were shaking and my stomach was excited like the time my dad accidentally drove into a fire hydrant. Angleberger peppers his chapters with spot-on boy banter, humorously crude Captain Underpants style drawings, and wisecrack asides that comically address the social land mines of middle school. Compiling a series of funny, first-person accounts of Yoda's wisdom from his friends, Tommy hopes to solve this mystery to determine whether to trust Yoda's advice about asking a certain girl to dance. Kids Wings Activities and Lesson Plans for The Strange Case of Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger. Not so long ago, in a middle school not so far away, a sixth grader named Dwight folded an origami finger puppet of Yoda. From another, he is simply the green paperwad animated by Tommy's misfit friend, Dwight, who wear shorts with his socks pulled up above his knees and stares into space like a hypnotized chicken. From one perspective, Origami Yoda is a finger puppet that offers cryptic but oddly sage advice to Tommy and his classmates.
Is Origami Yoda real? is the question that plagues sixth-grader Tommy and drives the plot of this snappy debut.
