Book Hero Magic formatted this description to make it easier to read. While it's new and still learning, it may not be perfect - your feedback is welcome! Description

Author of the bestselling Darth Vader and Son series (more than 3 million copies sold), Jeffrey Brown, brings his charmingly funny take on the Star Wars galaxy to The Mandalorian!

Din Djarin, the terse Mandalorian bounty hunter, travels the galaxy with the adorable Grogu in tow. Whether he is keeping Grogu from messing with his controls while he flies the Razor Crest or stopping him from using the Force to steal extra snacks, Mando’s lessons as a caretaker will be instantly fun and recognisable to all families.

Brown’s colourful all-ages style and spin complement the show’s gritty milieu while accentuating the sweetness of the found family at the heart of the story. His unexpectedly funny touches and twists, and lighthearted interpretations of favourite characters, including Luke Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, IG-11, Peli Motto, Moff Gideon, Bo-Katan, The Armorer, and many more, will thrill fans and give them a way to appreciate the show in a whole new way.

The child is beloved by fans: Grogu became a massive fan favourite, inspiring new toys, merchandise, thousands of pieces of fan art, and an unquenchable desire for the fan-dubbed "Baby Yoda."

The perfect subject for Jeffrey Brown: The Mandalorian’s relationship with the child is the perfect playground for Brown’s charming take on fatherhood. Like Brown’s Darth Vader, Mando is a brooding, serious, masked character with a dark past, but he opens up to the joys of found fatherhood in the presence of Grogu.

Perfect for:

  • Fans of the Darth Vader and Son series
  • Star Wars fans with kids of their own
