Praise for Art2-D2's Guide to Folding and Doodling
"Once again, Angleberger’s humor, which presents itself in the text through characters from the series, in both human and origami form, connects with middle-grade readers. 'Art2' and the other 'Origami Yoda' books are the ultimate example of the by-a-fan/for-the-fans format, which succeeds if executed properly. This did he.”
—Florida Times-Union
"Excellent activity-book offshoot of Angleberger’s bestselling Origami Yoda series… The banter and tongue-and-cheek humor of the previous books is present, along with encouragement."
—Publishers Weekly
"The presentation’s offbeat attitude, ingenuity, and wit, many libraries will want to stock this high interest book..."
—Booklist
"Fans (and nonfans, if there are any) of the “Origami Yoda” series (Abrams) and website will find new opportunities aplenty for foolery in this spinoff compendium of progressively challenging hands-on instructions for drawing, folding, and goofing around with (mostly) Star Wars characters."

yeah! I read about it in who is George Lucas?
George Lucas is the one that wrote the original star wars books and directed some of the movies
Yes,yes I did.
Can anyone think of a pun between a Star Wars character and a paper bag? Because I recently found this brown one that I wanted to make into a character.
... Palpa bag? Chewbagga? Elan Paperbaggano (the deathsticks guy in Episode 2)?
You could always do darth paper
Whos favorite star wars movie is Return of the Jedi?
me! I love return of the jedi! but I LOVED the force awakens a lot!
it my second fav, my first is the new force awakens.
Tom, webmaster Sam hasn't been uploading any of my origami or memes.
I love origami! I only read the strange case of OY. 😭😭😭 . But still the book is great! I have so much origami. I have 50!
That's a lot!!! GLad you read the book and glad you are folding!!!
anyone heard of Undertale? thinking of making a origami version of my 2 favorite characters,Sans and Papyrus!
asome
Hey guys,I am BobaFettFan55 on Origami Yoda,i used to be BobaFettFan5. If you look on SFS you can see my one and only creation i posted of Jek-14. I can't wait to be back in the new Talk Zone!
Death Star vs Star Killer base?The death star is better in my opinion. Star Killer base just made the same mistake for the 3rd times! #the first order has problems
I think that star killer base is better because it can destroy like 4 planets a time and suck up entire suns!!! #thefirstorderdoesnothaveproblems
I think star killer base is better... but the first order indeed does have problems. all they think is kill and the mistake they made like the death star: never wondering what its weakness is.
they made the same mistake for the 3#rd time! plus the DS looks like a small moon so it has a disguise!#i'm with the resistance and I'm also princess Leia. Is your favorite character Jabba?
Who here likes Harry Potter? Expecto Patronum! Star Wars is still better. <( )>-MUST!

Harry Potter is GREAT! I like either the fifth book of fourth...
Prisoner of Azkaban is my favorite!
I love harry potter! the books are awesome!
I like Harry Potter too, but I think one can't really compare HP and Star Wars. I think both are good, in their own way.
It's true, since Harry Potter's main medium is books and Star Wars's is movies.
Hey,if anybody wants to see some cool origami made by me and some superfolders,check out the superfolder team website. I made a cool origami darth maul! (The horns were a problem)
