About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is navigating the murky waters of social dynamics, feeling targeted by an anonymous peer, or struggling with the pressure of a big transition. This graphic novel follows Roan during his final year at the Jedi Academy as he deals with a mysterious 'phantom bully' who is trying to get him into trouble with school authorities. It masterfully balances the whimsical fun of the Star Wars universe with the very real anxieties of pre-teen life. Parents will appreciate how the story validates the stress of being misunderstood while encouraging kids to look deeper at the motivations behind peer conflict. The mix of journal entries, comics, and school reports makes it highly accessible for reluctant readers. It is perfectly suited for children aged 8 to 12 who are learning to manage their reputations and friendships as they grow more independent.
