Stick figures to the dark side only lead! To doodle like a Jedi you must learn! With this companion to the blockbuster bestselling Origami Yoda series, beloved author Tom Angleberger—with the help of the kids from McQuarrie Middle School—presents young Padawans with dozens of activities from the Star Wars universe. Padawans can learn how to fold R2-D2 and C-3PO, draw Jabba, and even build a fully functioning ChapStick rocket! Other Force-mastering activities include: “Kellen’s Guide to Cool Letters,” “Mike’s Complete Rules and Tips for Pencil Pod-Racing,” “Rhondella’s Tips for Photographing Origami,” and much more!
With Tom Angleberger’s goofy sense of humor and accessible art style, Art2-D2’s Guide to Folding and Doodling is sure to satisfy and inspire the millions of Origami Yoda and Star Wars fans. May the doodles be with you!
Includes 16-page color insert with 10 pages of colored pull-out origami paper; instructions to make Yoda, Darth, C-3PO, Admiral Ackbar, and R2-D2; a section on photographing your origami creations, and two Star Wars backdrops to photograph them against.
This is the blockbuster bestselling Origami Yoda series, written by Tom Angleberger, author of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi: Beware the Power of the Dark Side, showcasing his proven knack for authentically capturing the intrigues, fads, and dramas of middle school in “a satisfying tale of friendship and just resistance to authority” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review).
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."

Great!! Those were AWESOME!!! I had fun drawing some!
What have you all folded recently? I recently folded Poe and Jar Jar!
I'm mostly drawing now too, but I think I'm going to make some LOTRigami and Hobbitgami next.
Hobbit origami?Like Bilbo Baggins?I love that book! Ive been doing a lot of drawing lately too.I made an awesome picture of Hermione from the Yule Ball
I haven't been folding so much lately... doing lots of drawing!
my friends and I made a second order! Im hux for the commanders and slip ( dead stormtrooper with bloody hand) for minions!
I've just seen that someone has put up instrux for MY Boba Fett ... without crediting me. :^( I mean, I'm totally okay with people figuring out my designs, folding them and creating instrux, I kinda feel honored, you know? But please, if you submit anything (models or instrux) based on someone else's work, could you mention that it wasn't your own design? Even if you don't remember their name. Just think about how you would feel if someone took your work and claimed it as his or her own.
They are going down the path to the dark side.Kidding.Just because someone is being a plagiarist doesn't mean they are a sith lord.
I'm rather interested in seeing these. I know you can't send me a link, as that goes against site rules, but could you tell me what name to find them under?
Uh oh.... which post is it? I'll ask Sam to take it down.
It's the post "FinallyINSTRUX" by MasterFolderNate.
Since I have gotten permission from tom, I have created a subreddit for Origami Yoda! You can find it on reddit under r/ OrigamiYoda.
I went to it and there was like nothing
It doesn't have anything yet because nobody is using it.
