By Jeffrey Brown
This book is great for Star Wars fans. It is the second Jedi Academy book and it picks up right where the first one left off. However, it is not necessary to read the first book before reading this one. Students love the style of the book with a mixture of diary entries, letters home, newspaper clips, holobook messages, comics and more. The story has great messages built in with the comics. In this book Roan learns about what it means to be a friend and the challenges a middle schooler faces including bullying. This is a book that many students will enjoy.
