About this ebook
What if Darth Vader took an active role in raising his son? What if "Luke, I am your father" was just a stern admonishment from an annoyed dad? In this hilarious and sweet comic reimagining, Darth Vader is a dad like any other—except with all the baggage of being the Dark Lord of the Sith. Celebrated artist Jeffrey Brown's delightful illustrations give classic Star Wars® moments a fresh twist, presenting the trials and joys of parenting through the lens of a galaxy far, far away. Life lessons include lightsaber batting practice, using the Force to raid the cookie jar, Take Your Child to Work Day on the Death Star ("Er, he looks just like you, Lord Vader!"), and the special bond shared between any father and son. Plus, this is the fixed-format version, which looks almost identical to the print edition.

Really good farcical take on the Star Wars universe. I found myself grinning from ear-to-ear and openly chuckling (even on the subway) while considering some of the scenarios. One needs to imagine James Earl Jones' voice when reading the Vader lines!

Great book that is spot on full of references to the movies. A great introduction to the Star Wars universe for young children.
