Darth Paper Strikes Back by Tom Angleberger

4.0

The first case file, The Curious Case of the Origami Yoda, was an investigation into Dwight's finger puppet, a collection of testimonies and commentaries to determine if Origami Yoda wielded the power and wisdom of the actual Yoda. In this second case file, the stakes are much higher. Skeptic Harvey and his own finger puppet, Darth Paper, have succeeded in getting Dwight suspended until an expulsion hearing before the school board. Now, Tommy and Kellen are collecting evidence from their classmates on Origami Yoda, showing how he and Dwight only intended good that was twisted by the dark side power of Harvey and Darth Paper, to present at the school board meeting on their behalf. We once again get many voices and perspectives from a variety of classmates, along with illustrations from Kellen and plenty of references to the Star Wars saga. Accessible, fun, and wise all at once.
