Horn Book Review

In this third collection of Star Wars' spoof comics, young Luke, Leia, Han, and Chewie engage in ordinary kid activities--playing on the playground, teasing one another, going to school--that are comical when set amid the landscape of the Star Wars galaxy. With a decidedly adult sensibility, the book is a pleasant diversion for fans. (c) Copyright 2015. The Horn Book, Inc., a wholly owned subsidiary of Media Source, Inc. No redistribution permitted.
