I read this with my 7yo son. He chose the rating for this book, but I agree with him.

This is another fantastic Jedi Academy from Jeffrey Brown. This time, the theme is how to deal with bullies. That theme runs through all three of Jeffrey Brown's Jedi Academy books, but it's very much the focus of this book. Roan learns again the value of friends, the value of believing in yourself, but this book also spends some time asking why bullies might behave the way they do.

My son loves the Jedi Academy books so much that he's decided he's going to write to Jeffrey Brown to ask him to write more books about Roan. My son really wants to find out what happens to him next.

As with all the Jedi Academy books, I'd recommend this book if you're looking for something to read with a Star Wars-loving kid. It's full of opportunities for interesting conversations, whether they be about the ways of the Force or how to deal with difficult times at school.
