Dark times have fallen on McQuarrie Middle School. Dwight's back—and not a moment too soon, as the gang faces the FunTime Menace: a new educational program designed to raise students' standardized test scores. Instead, it's driving everyone crazy with its obnoxious videos of Professor FunTime and his insidious singing calculator! When Principal Rabbski cancels the students' field trip—along with art, music, and LEGO classes—to make time for FunTime, the students turn to Origami Yoda for help. But some crises are too big for Origami Yoda to handle alone: Form a Rebel Alliance the students must. United, can they defeat the FunTime Menace and cope with a surprise attack from Jabba the Puppett?

With this latest episode in the explosively popular Origami Yoda series, Tom Angleberger proves once again that he “has his finger puppet squarely on the erratic pulse of middle-school life" (Washington Post).

Praise for The Surprise Attack of Jabba the Puppett

"Chock-full of customarily quirky fun."

Kirkus Reviews

"Fans of the series will relish the side drawings' goofy humor, the new puppets to make, and the cliff-hanger promising more to come."

School Library Journal

"Angleberger delivers another clever, funny crowd-pleaser. The message isn't bad either: uniting for the greater good and standing up for one's beliefs. Fans of the series, or of Star Wars, will hit warp speeds to grab a copy of this one."

FROM AMAZON: Dark times have fallen on McQuarrie Middle School. Dwight's back - and not a moment too soon, as the gang faces the FunTime Menace: a new educational program designed to raise students' standardized test scores. Instead, it's driving everyone crazy with its obnoxious videos of Professor FunTime and his insidious singing calculator! When Principal Rabbski cancels the students' field trip - along with art, music, and LEGO classes - to make time for FunTime, the students turn to Origami Yoda for help. But some crises are too big for Origami Yoda to handle alone: Form a Rebel Alliance the students must. United, can they defeat the FunTime Menace and cope with a surprise attack from Jabba the Puppett?

I'm a big fan of books where kids band together to make adults listen. ( )

So we've reached the 4th book in a series which is like ... waffles. It's been a long time since I read the fourth installment of anything.

I found the first two books charming and witty. The third and fourth installments are a couple big steps below those. #4 went all in with the most everyone in the book joining the Origami Star Wars world portraying characters I didn't even recognize (I wouldn't consider myself a Star Wars nerd though).

It's not good enough to make me want to continue the series, even though this book ends at a "cilff-hanger". I think I'll just let it hang there for a while. ( )

This book has The Empire Strikes Back syndrome. Our heroes are facing impossible odds, struggling to survive against an evil empire, hopelessly outnumbered, and then the story stops. Come on, Angleberger! Don't go to the dark side! Don't give us cliffhangers so that we have to buy the next book!

Here's what my Origami Yoda says: "Finish what you start you must." Listen to his wisdom.

Other than that, another strong offering, although I would have liked to see more of Dwight. I really like that weird kid.

Me and Kellen knew we would be starting a new case file when Dwight got back. We just didn't know what it would be about. I mean, you never, never know what to expect from Dwight.
