He dispenses advice on everything from whether or not to ask a girl to dance to how the least athletic boy in the class can finally do well in softball. Origami Yoda is just as wise as the Yoda we know and love in the movies. Dwight, known as the class weirdo, one day puts Origami Yoda on his finger and asks people to talk to him. In The Strange Case of Origami Yoda, Tom Angleberger tells the story of a group of 6th graders whose lives are forever changed by a paper finger puppet. And when The Girl put the book on her “Best Books of 2010” list, I knew I had to read it. But Yoda rocks, and this book has an eye-catching cover.
