Star Wars Heroes

http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/51eKpeu69lL.jpg

Okay, humor me. What parent doesn't want to introduce their totz to Star Wars Heroes? You have to smile, giggle, and open this book!

Each spread photo-illustrates one of the cast from George Lucas' series of films. Characters and their quotes are shiny against beautiful matte galaxy backgrounds. Among the spreads, you'll find these:

"Luke Skywalker is the greatest hero in the galaxy. 'I am a Jedi.'
Yoda is a very old and very wise Jedi Master. 'Help you, I can!'"

There's the surprise inclusion of the youthful Obi-Wan Kenobi and even Anakin. Darth Vater does not make an appearance.

Anyway, I think it's adorable. And you can always prop open Han Solo on your desk for a bit, right? Your totz will fall in love with these characters just as quickly as we did.

"May the force be with you."

I saw this book at my elementary school's book fair and I had to buy it. My husband is a HUGE Star Wars fan, and my two-year old daughter needs to be exposed to more than Harry Potter (my influence)! Anyways, my dd needs to have Star Wars Heroes read to her every night at bedtime. We are so brainwashing our kid! Great book.
