Synopsis

The final Origami Yoda case file from the kids at McQuarrie Middle School! After successfully fighting to save their field trip in Princess Labelmaker to the Rescue!, Tommy and the gang prepare for a well-earned day of fun and adventure in Washington, DC . . . but of course it won't be that easy! This trip to the nation's capital will be full of shifting alliances and betrayals, carsickness and sugar rushes. Trouble starts even before the buses leave school, when Principal Rabbski decrees the field trip an "origami-free zone." Dwight secretly folds a Yoda from a Fruit Roll-Up, but will Fruitigami Yoda be a match for Harvey's sour, hate-filled pickle of darkness? Astronaut ice cream, a supersonic plane, a Johnny Appleseed sighting, and a near arrest-are just some of the clues in the sweetest, stookiest, biggest, craziest Origami Yoda case file yet.

About Tom Angleberger

Tom Angleberger ("Rise of the RoboShoes™") began writing his first novel in eighth grade, but never completed it. Since then, he’s been a newspaper reporter and columnist, a juggler, a weed boy, a lawn-mower-part assembler, and a biology research assistant. This bestselling author insists he’s not really all that creative—"I’m more of a puzzle-putter-together."

Goodreads review by Ivonne on August 05, 2016

Do not believe author Tom Angleberger! Despite intimations, Emperor Pickletine Rides the Bus, the sixth volume in the series that began with The Strange Case of Origami Yoda, will not be the last.

Goodreads review by Craig on September 27, 2014

As the last book in the series, this one was destined to answer the original question that opened the series: Is Origami Yoda real? I wasn't convinced this could have a satisfying answer, and when Origami Yoda -- or rather his origami-free knock-off, Fruitigami Yoda -- saved the kids from the Great......more

With the FunTime Menace defeated, the seventh-graders of McQuarrie Middle School turn their focus to the Washington, D.C. field trip they fought to preserve when the school threatened to take it away. Origami Yoda has said it will be a trip of destiny, but Dwight, Tommy, Kellen, Sara, Amy, Harvey, Q......more

Goodreads review by Jonathan on October 06, 2014

Well I had major beef with the previous book in this series and this one helps prove my point. Let me talk about this book first. It was solid. Taught a good lesson like every book in this series has, but they are starting to get boring. However I in no way believe (even though the cover says "the f......more
