Supply and demand. Diversifying labor. Distributing the wealth. 'It's groovy, man,' Arnold said. The grass grew, and so did business. Arnold invested my money in many things.

In fact Ben is so awkward, he can barely get to school and back without a mishap. Because of his innate nerdiness, Ben is not surprised when he is recruited for a magnet school with a focus on science - but he's entirely shocked to discover that the school is actually a front for a junior CIA academy.

More appealing to kids than adults
When my sons and I listen to audiobooks, I usually enjoy them as much as the kids. This wasn't one of those times. That said, my 11 year old son finished the book in just a few sittings, on an airplane. He said this wasn't his favorite and wasn't interested in listening to the sequels, but clearly it held his interest while he was listening. His biggest complaint was that the focus of the story was on dating and relationships, and he assumed from the title it would be mostly tied in to Star Wars.
This is a popular series so I assume our experience is an anomaly, but wanted to share our thoughts in case you have a kid who doesn't like relationship drama, or like me want to find books you both enjoy.

Interesting... kids liked it
This is a good book for elementary and middle schoolers. It presents an inventive way to tackle subjects and concerns for that age group. Listening to the story, I don't think kids would understand right off that they are being given advice on how to handle that stage of life, and all of the ordinary but uncomfortable things they face.

6th Graders Love This!
After listening to this story I decided to have my reluctant readers read it together. They love it! After each chapter the students write done the main idea of the chapter, and make a comment. Their comments are on the advice that was given by Origami Yoda. Sometimes they come up with alternative solutions. They can relate to the story because they are in 6th grade just like the characters in the book. We are even doing origami together. Eventually we will try to create Origami Yoda. They are very interested in reading Darth Paper next.

Liked it more than the rating
I would probably give the overall rating a 3.5. This was a cute, sweet story about a group of school kids with one social outcast. It is charming because it reminded me of what kids are like at that age. This book is really aimed at kids, and while I enjoyed it - I don't think I was in the mood for a young adult/kids book. I have recommended this book to my friends who are parents. I think this would be a good book to listen to with kids.

Great for Kids and Their Parents
Picked this title out for a 5 hour road trip with my 10 year old son. He LOVED it and laughed all they way through. He loved it so much that when we finished it I had to pull over at a rest area to find and download the next book in the series. Definitely would recommend this book and the whole series. Dwight is STOOCKY!
