The Golden Globe (Star Wars: Junior Jedi Knights, Book 1) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I read this series about six years ago when I was in first grade. When I read the first one in first grade, I was obsessed. I couldn't stop reading and I finished it in four days (that was the best I had done up until then). Then I had to wait for three months to read the next one. That drove me crazy.
Everyone in my family reads all the time. I'm the youngest of three children, so naturally I wanted to be different from everyone else in my family. Reading was just one of those things that didn't interest me. Until these books came along.
I haven't read these books since third grade, so I can't remember how well they were written. All I know is that I thought
these were the most exciting books I had ever read. I went through about two years where all I did was reading one novel a week for school. then I started the Harry Potter books. Once I was done with those, I read The Lord of the Rings.
Now I'm reading all the time. Books like the ones listed above, and Ender's Game and its sequels have kept me reading for the past three years. But these books started it all.
So if you're looking for a series for a kid who loves Star Wars, who is within the ages of 5 and 9, these are great ones. And once they're done with these, they should try The Young Jedi Knights Series, which have a lot in common but are written for kids probably within the ages 7 and 12. Then, MAKE them read Ender's Game. And If they like Ender's Game, They should check out it's sequels, starting with Speaker for the Dead.
There are a lot of other Star Wars Kids books out there, but I don't think they're worth the effort. Have them read Harry Potter or something.
