I grew up watching the original Star Wars trilogy, and it was one of the things I couldn’t wait to share with my own kids. I am happy to say that my little guys have grown into big fans, and it’s something that we all enjoy together. Each trip to the library usually includes a selection of Star Wars books.
Since I know that fans of the series come in all ages and ability levels, I put together a book list based on some of our favorite Star Wars reads. No matter the age of your Jedi, I think you’ll find something that they will love here!
