This week, it's the Did You Know ... Origami Edition!
Origami is the art of paper folding.
Paper was first invented in China around 105 A.D., and was brought to Japan almost 500 years later.
The word origami comes from the Japanese oru (to fold) and kami (paper).
Did you also know that there is a new book out from the creators of The Strange Case of Origami Yoda? It's entitled Darth Paper Strikes Back: An Origami Yoda Book.
For more information on the art of Origami, visit the
