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."

Yoda Yoda

I like all your books tom

wow tom has followed a bunch of people like yodog and boomzoom

Who is that guy at 2:23 in the swr trailer mace windu? And does ezra turn 2 the dark side? So many questions I CANT WAIT TILL A PRINCESS ON LOTHAL!!!!!

Yeah I watched it again and realized he said "old master" so idk

Some people have speculated about it being Darth Maul. As for Ezra turning, we can't know, but we will see, so stay patient. And I'm really looking forward to the new episode too!!

Ive only watched a bit of season2,did you know they are adding princess leia?

This is really random but tom how long does it take to get all the copyright 4 ur books 4 stuff like star wars and mountain dew and whatever

All the Star Wars stuff is has to be approved by LFL. Other stuff like Mt. Dew is considered fair use, with one BIG exception: the use of the Let's Twist Again lyrics in Pickletine. We had to pay to use those.

Who likes my avatar? It was as close as I could get to Origami Yoda.

Tom whats your favourite origami character from the origami rebelion?

I was really proud of all the different Ewoks.

Tom I finished the series past thursday

I think that this is one of the best of origami yoda books

"Without the past there is no future"- Raven Deep bruh

In case Tom comes by today, may I have permission to create a Subreddit for Origami Yoda? If you don't know what Reddit is, it's a website where people create different discussion areas for all kinds of topics. I just wanted to get your permission first, as the site does not seem to have a page for it yet.

Thank you! You can find it under r/ OrigamiYoda now.
