About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is showing an interest in epic hero stories but isn't quite ready for the intensity or complexity of the original Star Wars films. It is a perfect bridge for early readers who are navigating the concepts of good versus evil and the importance of teamwork. By using the familiar, playful lens of LEGO, the story deescalates the high stakes of a space war into something approachable and humorous. The story follows Luke Skywalker and a band of rebels as they attempt to stop the Empire and destroy the Death Star. While it covers the classic battle between the light and dark sides of the Force, the primary focus is on how a group of very different individuals can work together to achieve a common goal. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to foster a love for science fiction and adventure while keeping the emotional experience light and encouraging.
