With Dwight attending Tippett Academy this semester, the kids of McQuarrie Middle School are on their own—no Origami Yoda to give advice and help them navigate the treacherous waters of middle school. Then Sara gets a gift she says is from Dwight—a paper fortune-teller in the form of Chewbacca. It’s a Fortune Wookiee, and it seems to give advice that’s just as good as Yoda’s—even if, in the hands of the girls, it seems too preoccupied with romance. In the meantime, Dwight is fitting in a little too well at Tippett. Has the unimaginable happened? Has Dwight become normal? It’s up to his old friends at McQuarrie to remind their kooky friend that it’s in his weirdness that his greatness lies.
This is the third case file in 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 The Secret of the Fortune Wookieehas crafted a worthy follow-up to his break
STARRED REVIEW
"Angleberger’s third in the series continues the fun. A chorus of spot-on middle school voices and plenty of laughs are wrapped around this tale of friendship and seasoned with Star Wars references."
—Kirkus Reviews, starred review
"Tom Angleberger offers a hilarious third book in his best-selling series starring origami Star Wars characters. Angleberger’s grasp of middle-school emotions, humor and behavior is spot-on, and parents who want to get a sense of what it’s like be a preteen these days might consider reading this book. But you'll likely have to pry it out of your young reader’s hands first."

I had a GREAT time reading this book! I was fantastic! You should defently read this book. NOW GO READ IT!BYE
its about these kids that are in high school.they all like origami so one day this kid started to make origami yoda.people started to get ideas from yoda.but one day the kid who had yoda moved to a diffrent school.so the students tries everything they can to bring back the kid and yoda.
I had a really fun time reading this and found it hard to pull away from. All my friends started begging me if they could borrow the books from me, and when they read them, they really liked the books. I hope you found (find) them that way, too.
Not bad. Almost done with it.
This book was pretty good. So after getting kicked out of his old school, Dwight transfers to "Tippet" and enjoys it there. Dwight also, supposedly makes an origami Chewbacca for the class, and Sara uses it. But, when their class starts really missing Dwight, and from Caroline, a student that used to go to Mcquarrie, they're hearing that Dwight is not acting like himself at his new school...so Tommy and his classmates put together a new file on wanting Dwight to return.
As you have already heard I am in love with this book seiries! They have so much humor, excitment, humor, relatible characters and humor! This one is not my favorite origami yoda book but it is still amazing! Its about Tommy and kellen trying to live with out oy.You should toatally read it!
Book 2 is the best, then 1, then 3, this book was ok
