Jabba The Puppett

Angleberger, T. (2013). The surprise attack of Jabba the Puppett: An Origami Yoda book. New York: Abrams.

The 7th graders at McQuarrie Middle School are very upset with their principal.  She has decided to replace art, music and band with classes that will hopefully increase standardized test scores.  The students decide to fail the test in order to botch the principals plans.
The students end up getting support from their parents against the Fun Time Classes.  Students 8-13 would enjoy this book.  Students in Texas could definitely relate to rebelling against standarized tests.  I really enjoyed the
drawings on each page as well as the origami instructions at the end of the book.
