Synopses & Reviews
With Dwight attending Tippett Academy this semester, the kids of McQuarrie Middle School are on their ownandmdash;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 Dwightandmdash;a paper fortune-teller in the form of Chewbacca. Itandrsquo;s a Fortune Wookiee, and it seems to give advice thatandrsquo;s just as good as Yodaandrsquo;sandmdash;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? Itandrsquo;s up to his old friends at McQuarrie to remind their kooky friend that itandrsquo;s in his weirdness that his greatness lies.
With his proven knack for humorously exploring the intrigues, fads, and dramas of middle school, Tom Angleberger has crafted a worthy follow-up to his breakout bestsellers The Strange Case of Origami Yoda and Darth Paper Strikes Back.

andmdash;Kirkus Reviews, starred review
andquot;Tom Angleberger offers a hilarious third book in his best-selling series starring origami Star Wars characters. Anglebergerandrsquo;s grasp of middle-school emotions, humor and behavior is spot-on, and parents who want to get a sense of what itandrsquo;s like be a preteen these days might consider reading this book. But youand#39;ll likely have to pry it out of your young readerandrsquo;s hands first.andquot;

"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
