Siglain,
Michael, ill. By Pilot Studio. Ewoks Join
the Fight. Pgs. 32. Disney Hyperion, 2015. EARLY READER
When the Empire’s newest secret
weapon, the Death Star, is spotted near the forest moon, Han Solo, Leia, Lue,
Chewie, C-3P0, and R2-D2 are sent to investigate. When the group attempts to
infiltrate the enemy’s bunker and destroy the Death Star, they are attacked by
biker scouts. Leia is separated from them. While trying to find her, the group
is captured by some furry warrior creatures known as Ewoks. Are the Ewoks
friendly? Where is Leia? Will the group manage to stop the Empire and their new
weapon?
The text, though simple, brings to
life the characters with ease and draws the reader into the story. The pictures
capture the character well, especially the adorable, but feisty little Ewoks.
Fans of Star Wars, science fiction, animals, and space, will enjoy reading this
easy reader with the help of a parent. EL (K-3). ADVISABLE. Reviewer: Kira M,
Youth Services Librarian, WHI Public Library.
