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."

Tom, I am your BIGGEST fan, so I want to ask you a question: Who is your favourite star wars character of all times? Mine is Obi-Wan-Kenobi!

Yoda! Or R2! My favorite scene is when they meet!

Mine too! He has got the best humor.

May The Force be with everyone here

The Origanals Are Almost always the Best

Maybe one day a new movie will be better.... but right now I agree with you.

I still think that A New Hope is the best

Just got it for Christmas! Really good book! Hi tom!

Thanks, dude! I;m glad you liked it!

Hey tom where can I find ur other books like qwikpic I haven't seen them anywhere

If you have a local independent bookstore, they should have no problem getting any of them for you. Otherwise, you may have to order them online.

I really appreciate your interest in Qwikpick! It hasn't been a bestseller, but it is really important to me. The final book in the trilogy comes out this spring!

can you put some thing on the origami yoda website?

Yes, anyone can get an account and then use the SUBMIT button to send photos to Webmaster Sam. He'll post them in the STOOKINESS pages of the site!

who would win in a fight? Darth Maul or General Grievous?

ha ha darth maul would just force choke his face!

The General would beat the original Darth Maul. But the half-robot Darth Maul might beat the General.

I think dooku would win that.
