My name is Qui-Gon Jinn. I am a JEDI.
The Jedi are a very special group of beings. For many thousands of years, we have worked to promote peace and justice in the universe.
Jedi training is very hard and begins at an early age. Young Jedi are raised by JEDI MASTERS and taught the Jedi ways.
A Jedi student is called an apprentice or PADAWAN.
Jedi Masters train their Padawans to be JEDI KNIGHTS. My Padawan is a young Jedi named OBI-WAN KENOBI. He began his training with me when he was a young boy.
The LIGHTSABER is the weapon of the Jedi. Each Jedi must build his own lightsaber as part of his training.
This is how a lightsaber works....

5.0 out of 5 stars
Excellent for young children,
By A Customer
This review is from: Star Wars, Episode 1: I Am a Jedi (Paperback)
As a special education teacher working to stimulate children with reading differences/difficulties, I am always looking for highly motivating, well-illustrated, well-written books. This book is all three, plus it has the advantage of appealing, in its subject material, not just to the younger readers (grades 1-4), but to those in grades 5-12 (yes, 12!) as well. I was able to do many interesting activities for boys and girls with learning differences, using materials based on Episodes 4, 5, and 6. So far, the story/activity books from Episode I, including this one and the three others in the four-book series, are just as carefully done, with the same potential for entrancing and motivating the low-level reader. (And I, a high-level reader, also think they are simply super for reading to great-grandchildren or to myself.) The Star Wars materials, this story in particular, offer many opportunities to develop high-level critical thinking skills, which these students usually have in abundance, and to stimulate writing and vocabulary skills. Even a short book like this one offers the opportunity to discuss acceptable behaviors, to improve choice-making, and to define personal goals. Thank you, George Lucas, Marc Cerasini and Random House, for making solid-gold books like this available!

Wonderful, intelligent book for the very young andall others,
By A Customer
This review is from: Star Wars, Episode 1: I Am a Jedi (Paperback)
This is just a terrific storybook. After a year, it is still one of my 3 year old niece's favorites.The graphic design is sophisticated and elegant, and the book introduces young children to the Star Wars universe with great style. It's intelligent, a quality missing in so many children's movie tie-in books. The presentation of the Jedi is age-appropriate but will also appeal to much older readers. Three cheers for Random House and Lucas Books!

My son enjoyed this book. It was an easy read for a 7 year old, with nice pictures and interesting facts. Probably perfect for a 5 or 6 year old.
