Origami Yoda

The Origami Yoda Books are a series of books by Tom Angleberger. Featuring Star Wars elements whose use was officially licensed by Lucasfilm Ltd., the series presents the adventures of a group of children in middle school.

The story begins when a social outcast boy in the school named Dwight Tharp creates a finger puppet that is dubbed "Origami Yoda." Tommy Lomax opens a case-file to investigate when it seems as though Dwight is using the Force to channel power through Origami Yoda to answer people's questions about topics such as life and love.

A new threat emerges in the form of "Darth Paper," who unlike Origami Yoda, gives snide and crass answers to questions. A sequence of events eventually results in Dwight's being expelled from the middle school and he is sent to a private school called Tippet Academy.

Following these events, two girls at the school create new finger puppets called the "Fortune Wookiee" and "Han Foldo," a translator. These new puppets again help to solve people's problems, though Tommy begins to suspect that there is something not on the level about the two.
