Jar Jar is so funny.
Jar Jar is so funny because he slurps up a frog and he splashes it into Sebulba's soup. That made my great-grandmother crack up! She read the whole book with me and she said funny things about the book. I think she was so excited that I could read it by myself, and thought that the book was extremely funny.

An average book about a clumsy gungan.
First let me state that I am well over the desired reading age for such books as this, and was only reading it to try to get some insights on the fascinating gungan that is Jar Jar Binks. This book was quite short, and only had about 10 words per page, so if you are a parent looking to buy this for your children you might ought to think about passing this book up for one with more than 100 words in it. The only really good thing about this book was that it had some pretty good artwork, but the good parts were basically limited to that. I read the book to my five year old nephew (and he loves Star Wars) and he didn't like the book at all. Also, many of the things that occur in this book were taken from the movie, so you don't really get any new material. To be honest, I don't know why anyone would even publish this book. They ought to just leave out the story and put pictures in it.

I liked the book a lot.
Even though I am almost 11, I loved this because I thought Jar-Jar was funny, and very clumsy. I want to say hi to my mommy, because she might read this. ***Meghan***

Character is weak... to say the least.
Review: Are you kidding? Would give it 0 stars if it were possible. This character is a waste of time - nothing but one long, very expensive FX test shot.

Out of touch.
This book is moderately entertaining by effectively providing a series of hand-drawn snapshots from the film. However, it centers around Jar Jar's blatant attempt to steal something from a shopkeeper! This is written off as 'he was hungry', but never addressed. In the end Anakin scolds Jar Jar and tells him to 'Be less afraid' after various run-ins with people Jar Jar annoyed. I'm not trying to be overly humorless and critical, but I also try to keep my children away from books that gloss over 'petty' crimes. His theft is supposed to be cute and funny, but loses its fractional humor by devolving into insults and physical abuse. ... Read more

These Step into Reading books about Star Wars are great
My 4 year old loves to have these books read to him. Before I introduced these books to him he was at a much simpler level of book, but his interest - because of the droids (robots) has helped him grow into these. My 7 year old devours them by reading them to himself and to his brother.

Cool book for small kids
It talks about the fate of Anakin Skywalker. I thought it was a good and detailed book. It gets right to the point. ... Read more
