Customer Reviews

Great for Young Readers

My 6-year-old son is a HUGE fan of Star Wars. We don't let him watch the cartoon and he has only seen the movies once, but he seems to know everything about this fictitious world! So, when I noticed him bringing home the DK readers from the school library (all the little boys race to get them at school every week and he can't always get there first!), I knew just what kind of books to buy so he always has some at home to read. It is very important to have books available on topics kids love so they will love reading! Good job DK. We are amassing quite a library and he is so proud that he can read them himself!

Another great addition to a stellar series

DK has a remarkable line of 'Reader' products. The Star Wars line now includes stories about the Clone Wars, classic star wars, and career paths for the Jedi knight. "Yoda in Action", written by Heather Scott is an enjoyable book that pits Yoda into a violent negotiation with King Katuunko (and battle with Dooky and Ventress). As a level 3 reader, it is not indepth, but satisfies the young at heart with a hankering for master Yoda. Do you really think that Yoda can take out a thousand clones and hardware? Why don't you find out. I love the art for the book, and am really not sure if it is taken from the new series, or done especially for this book. The King reminds me of a certain part shop operator on a planet far, far away.... Pretty good book, even for an old guy like me! Tim Lasiuta
