Roan has always wanted to be a pilot and to follow in the footsteps of his father who is a fantastic and a well renowned pilot himself. Now I’m at a school with aliens, robots, and lightsaber-wielding bullies who can lift things with their minds! How am I supposed to compete with that? As if starting middle school wasn’t hard enough…” “My whole life I planned on going to pilot school like the rest of my friends – then I got rejected! Along came a little green guy named Yoda, who invited me to Jedi Academy. So if anyone is qualified to do this review, it’s him. He knows about all the movies, he has many information books that he studies very particularly, he can tell you about the weapons used and the war tactics put into practise. It’s one thing to say that you absolutely love Star Wars, but Alex takes this to the next level as he can name every character, planet and ship. I personally don’t know and haven’t met another person with such an extensive amount of knowledge on the subject. Before he starts though, I would just like to point out how much of a Star Wars fan he is. He will be writing the story line and thoughts section on his own. Today I present to you the book review for Star Wars Jedi Academy by Alex. So expect to hear back from us in 3 weeks to a month’s time for the next post… Of course, we will be seeing family that we haven’t seen for a long time and since it will be summer, you can’t expect us to stay out of the pools! This means we won’t be doing any posts until we are back and settled into term 3 of school. There is 1 week of school left for this term in Australia! Alex and I are so relieved to have finally finished all of our exams and are looking forward to the holidays, which we will spend in Lebanon and Cyprus with our dad’s side of the family. Welcome back dear readers, and apologies for the 1 month away from blogging! We certainly missed it! Oh, and he learns other important things too-like how to make a baking soda volcano, fence with a lightsaber, slow dance with a girl, and lift boulders with the Force.Book Review: Star Wars – Jedi Academy – Book 1 by Jeffrey Brown This inventive novel follows Roan's first year at Jedi Academy where, under the tutelage of Master Yoda, he learns that he possesses more strength and potential than he could have ever dreamed. But just as Roan is mysteriously denied entrance to Pilot School, he is invited to attend Jedi Academy-a school that he didn't apply to and only recruits children when they are just a few years old.
Roan's one dream is to leave home and attend Pilot Academy like his older brother, father, and grandfather.
This incredible, original story captures all of the humor, awkwardness, fun, and frustrations of middle school-all told through one boy's comics, journal entries, letters, doodles, and newspaper clippings. Author/illustrator Jeffrey Brown takes readers to a middle school in a galaxy far, far away.
