The Strange Case of Origami Yoda
So, I saw this book at Vestavia Hills Library in the Forest a few weeks ago and I had to check it out. It is the story of a boy named Tommy who is trying to figure out if Origami Yoda is real. Origami Yoda is a paper puppet that exists on the finger of a boy named Dwight. Dwight claims that Origami Yoda speaks through him. However, Dwight is the weirdest boy in school. He is the kind of guy who wears the same t-shirt everyday, fails every class except math, and sits in holes. Origami Yoda is able to prophesy and give good advice. So, Origami Yoda has to be real. right? He has to be channeling the Force. How else can Dwight be able to give good advice and tell the future? However, Tommy needs to know if Origami Yoda is real, because he needs to ask him if a certain girl in his class likes him. If you are a Star Wars fan, then you will love this book. I was pretty much laughing on every single page. They also make references to Spider-Man and Lord of the Rings. This is a terrific book for children from fourth to sixth grade.
