Young readers are sure to get a kick out five new Star Wars books featuring
everyone's favorite Star Wars characters.
First up are two books from Scholastic's Jedi Academy series: Return Of The
Padawan and Jedi Academy from writer/artist Jeffrey Brown.
Using a simple cartoon style, Jeffrey presents the continuing adventures of
Jedi wannabe Roan Novachez as he attempts to navigate through the Academy.
Along the way he deals with alien cooking, pilot testing, bullies, the Dark
Side, meeting Yoda, bumping into aliens and robots, Jedi mind powers and more
as he struggles to make it through the most unusual middle school in the
galaxy.
Every grade school kid can identify with Roan even though his school is full
of aliens from all over the universe.
Star Wars ABCs and Star Wars Colors teach young children their alphabet and to
identify colors by using colorful characters from the Star Wars films.
Thick heavy bound paper pages are filled edge-to-edge with color photos and
simple text to help young Jedi learn.
