The Strange Case of Origami Yoda by Tom Angleberger December 18, 2010

I really liked this book. It’s funny, and yet it’s very true to life. A nerdy middle school student named Dwight wears an origami finger puppet that looks like Yoda from Star Wars. The puppet gives advice to students in need. Tommy, another middle school student, tries to figure out if Yoda is giving the advice or if it’s really Dwight.
The book is organized in an interesting fashion with different students telling their experiences. It seems that each student learns a valuable lesson from Yoda. Tommy comments on each student’s contribution.
If you like the Diary of a Wimpy Kid books, you’ll like this one.
