Darth Paper Strikes Back by Tom Angleberger

Tommy and his friends are excited to start middle school.  Last year Origami Yoda made their lives better with all of his Star Wars wisdom. Sure, some people thought Origami Yoda wasn’t real. They thought Dwight just made the finger puppet to be annoying.  But then why did he always seem to have the answers to everyone’s’ problems?  Seventh grade was going to great!  Or so everyone thought until Harvey, Yoda’s biggest critic, came to school with an origami Darth Paper puppet on this finger.  Harvey promised to prove Yoda was a fake and lead everyone over to the Dark Side.

No one was too worried about Harvey’s threat until the unthinkable happens, Dwight and Origami Yoda, get kicked out of school.  Tommy and his friends have to think of a way to help Dwight before the principal convinces the school board to send him to CREF, a school for trouble youth.  The students set about to create a case file with stories of all the people Origami Yoda (and Dwight) have helped over the past year, while Harvey (and Darth Paper) do their best to introduce the Dark Side to the school.

Will the force be with Tommy and his friends?  Can they save Dwight from CREF?   Will the Dark Side prevail?  Is Dwight really a troubled kid that disturbs others, or is he just a brilliant but misunderstood student? You’ll have to read the story to find out.

**Note: This is the second book in a series, but don’t worry if you haven’t’ read the first book, everything is explained in this book.
