Spark of the Resistance by Justina Ireland

4.0

Justina Ireland's ability to capture the wonder that Star Wars holds for kids and put it down on paper is amazing. Spark is the perfect bridge for middle graders getting hyped for Rise of Skywalker--written at their level, just for them, with the same cool space battles and new, fuzzy critters that populate the movies. This book will leave kids with a better understanding of where the Resistance is going post-The Last Jedi, and why that end--though dark--will turn out all right in the last movie. We're turning toward the light, and this spark is going to ignite a lot of little hearts with pure joy.
