[ The Clone Wars ]

Two new The Clone Wars children's books discovered on Amazon:
Posted: 24th February
Affiliate Eddie van der Heijden of StarWarsTimeline.com
[External site - opens in a new window/tab] has discovered new listings on Amazon.com for two new The Clone Wars children's books from publisher Grosset and Dunlap due this Autumn.
The first is a 14-page hardcover pop-up book titled Villains
[External site - opens in a new window/tab], the second is a 160-page paperback written by Rob Valois titled Defenders of the Republic[External site - opens in a new window/tab]. While little is known about the content of these two titles, it is probable that Villains is a sequel to Heroes pop-up book released last September; and if Defenders of the Republic is indeed 160-pages long then it may either be the next US Decide Your Destiny title or perhaps the next collection of adapted TV series episode stories, similar to the Grievous Attacks paperback released in February 2009. More news as we receive it.

New The Clone Wars Readers from DK Publishing:
Posted: 20th February
StarWars.com has published details of two new The Clone Wars books for children from DK Publishing due this May: Meet the Jedi heroes that defend the galaxy from the ruthless Separatists and their endless droid armies!
DK Readers combine fantastic illustrations and engaging, age-appropriate stories in a multi-level reading program guaranteed to capture a child's interest while developing reading skills and general knowledge.

Jedi Heroes, written by Elizabeth Dowsett, is a Level 3 book suited for children who read alone, with more complex sentence structure, information boxes and a helpful alphabetical glossary.

 

Planets in Peril, also by Elizabeth Dowsett, is a Level 4 book, perfect for proficient readers with a rich vocabulary, challenging sentence structure, a comprehensive index, and additional information and alphabetical glossary.

Both titles are expected in May.
