Looking for books to read with 7 year old who LOVES Star Wars
Hello lovely Star Wars readers! Hoping for a bit of guidance.
My son is 6 (7 in December) he is autistic and absolutely obsessed with Star Wars. We've watched the 3 trilogies, the Rebels series and are part way through Clone Wars. He adores all of it, but LOVES the Sith especially. As it's his special interest we've been doing a deep dive this year - he's taught me more about it so far already than I ever thought I'd know 🤣 He's been wanting to know about the legends, the old sith lords, who was who's master and so on.
We've found him quite a few "early reader" type books and a level or 2 up for him to read himself and that's awesome. But I'd love to find some good chapter books that we could read to him/with him. We read every night at supper time and in bed, this is his main way of winding down at night for sleep and we can easily be reading for an hour plus some nights.
His attention span and understanding with stories is really good, things like The Hobbit and Harry Potter, Roald Dahl etc we get through easily with him and he'll be very engaged throughout.
But obviously he's still just coming up to 7, so I need to keep this in mind for content when picking books for us to read with him, if this makes sense?
He's not actually particularly sensitive - he'll tell me "it's not real mum" when I get emotional at films/books and quite likes being "scared" although obviously we're not exposing him to anything too dark or unsettling anyway.
Where would be a good place to start for good star wars stories, suitable to read to an avid (but younger) fan?
