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."

This book was amazing. It thought me how to fold,draw,more

Thanks, Kylo. I hope you "FINISHED" it!

Hey Tom! Just saw your message! I have been running my blog for a bit... A bit less traffic recently, but the SFs are still out there! Since the olden days, I've gotten extremely advanced with origami. I folded the Kawahata Yoda TWICE, plus the Jo Nakashima Dragon and, proudest of all, the Kade Chan dragon. And a lot of other stuff. :)

CAMMY! Kade Chan Dragon = SERIOUS business!

Is there a Pokémon Orgins episode 5?

Not for Kanto, But there is a rumor about them making episodes for Johto.

the only thing close to pokemon in star wars is bb-8

P.S. My favorite star wars character is Supreme Leader Snoke. I also like Kylo Ren. I'm not trying to be a nerd here, but did you know Kylo Ren works for a group called the " Knights of Ren".

And being a nerd is good

Right! No one needs to apologize for nerdiness around here!!

Yes I do know that I was going 2 look them up on wookiepiedia but didn't want TFA spoilers now I keep forgetting 2 look them up

best. Book. Since. War and Peace.

U actually read that whole book

I'm Makenzie and I've been here since the old talkzone. So I guess I'll introduce myself to the new SFs. I joined in October 2013 when I was 11 in sixth grade. I'm in 8th grade now. Since the old talkzone ended, I've kept in touch with other SFs through Kik. I am unhealthly obsessed with Star Wars and Luke is my favorite character and role model. I love books and I am currently reading the Heroes of Olympus series (I'm on the first book in the series). I've read all seven Harry Potter books and seen all eight movies. My favorite bands are My Chemical Romance, Imagine Dragons, The Beatles, Panic! at the Disco, and Fall Out Boy. My favorite shows are Doctor Who, The Walking Dead, and Star Wars Rebels. I watch a lot of YouTube, my favorite YouTubers being Dan and Phil, Troye Sivan, and Tyler Oakley. So I guess that's pretty much me. ^_^

I love Dan and Phil as well!!!

Hey Makenzie!!! Welcome to the NEW TZ!

Dan and Phil.... are they the potato guys?

Yo! Kenzie, sup! Me, Tanner remember? What's your favorite panic! Song? Mines ballad of Mona Lisa!

Hey ILOY remember me

For those of you that have seen Star War VII: What if Snoke was really three feet tall, and the hologram he was on was just to make himself look really big?-Just something funny I thought about.

Imagine if he was 3 CENTIMETERS tall!

I was wondering if he could be the same species as the little lizard guy from Clone Wars: Sunny Day in the Void
