<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br> In this final Origami Yoda case file, the seventh graders of McQuarrie Middle School and their Star Wars-inspired origami finger puppets go on a field trip to Washington, D.C., on what proves to be a very long trip full of shifting alliances, betrayals, carsickness, and sugar rushes. <p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br> <b>The thrilling conclusion to the <i>New York Times</i> bestselling Origami Yoda series from Tom Angleberger!</b> <p/> A field trip without origami? What the Hutt? <p/> The Origami Rebel Alliance is off to Washington, D.C.! But there's a hitch. Principal Rabbski has banned origami. Without the Jedi-wise advice of Origami Yoda, how will Tommy and the gang navigate the serious drama of a class trip? <p/> Luckily, Dwight comes prepared with green Fruit Roll-Ups that he can whip into emergency Fruitigami Yodas. Unluckily, Harvey also comes prepared with a wrinkly, hateful pickle. Can Fruitigami Yoda figure out why Emperor Pickletine is acting so sour . . . before the Emperor pushes this field trip into the Dark Side? <p/> The final battle between the forces of good and evil at McQuarrie has everything: Twists! Snacks! Secrets! But who is keeping the biggest secret of all? Origami Yoda himself, and it's a shocker! <p/> Includes instructions for folding your own origami. <br> <p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br> "...Angleberger's characteristic humor remains in abundant supply..."--Julia Smith "Booklist Online" (8/12/2014 12:00:00 AM) </br></br>"Angleberger closes his six-plus-volume (there is a companion origami manual with stories) series of doodle-filled Star Wars paeans with an enjoyable, funny and realistic denouement that nicely wraps up most of the series storylines.
