I read this book aloud for my tween sons, who are Star Wars fans. The book doesn't flow like a story, but is more like a summary/overview of the three most recent Star Wars films. The best aspect of the book are the color photographs - one big picture (or two smaller pictures) on each page.The least fortunate aspect of the book is that it's mostly for hard-core fans with a good memory, or for those who've seen the films recently. I found that the part of the book I enjoyed the most, was about the plot I remember the best - the circumstances around Luke and Leia's birth and what happened to them later. The rest of the book would have been more enjoyable if we'd seen the films recently or used the book as a film companion.
