    About this ebook

    In this funny and sweet new book in the bestselling Darth Vader™ series, Eisner Award–winning author Jeffrey Brown offers an intimate look at the friendships between best pals in the Star Wars universe, from Darth Vader and the Emperor to Leia and her Ewok pals, Han and Chewie, C-3PO and R2-D2, the bounty hunters, and other favorite characters. Jealousy, birthday parties, lightsaber battles, sharing, intergalactic rebellion and more all come into play as Brown's charming illustrations and humor irresistibly combine the adventures of our friends in a galaxy far, far away with everyday events closer to home.

      Got home from Funck's just in time, around 8:30 to read this to the girls before bed. Its a very cute book (more comic book than actual children's book). The girls definitely enjoyed it and laughed quite a bit to it (especially Olivia-Grace whose much more into Star Wars than Lily). A few of the jokes went over their head, but overall they enjoyed it, and I thought it was fun and cute.

      Am I not in a humorous mood lately? Not sure why I didn't find this one as funny as Darth Vader and Son (etc), but I didn't. Still a good buy for DH's enjoyment though.

      Darth Vader and Friends is the fourth book in the Darth Dad series. In this picture book series for children, the author imagines what life would be like if Darth Vader actually acted as a father to his young twins, Luke Skywalker and Princess Leia. I have enjoyed all of the Darth Dad series, and this one no less than any of the others. Jeffrey Brown has a fantastic imagination and a great sense of humor. Although my children are too old for pictures books, we still continue to enjoy the antics of young Luke and Leia and their put-upon father, Darth Vader. We will continue to read these books as long as Jeffrey Brown continues to write them.A must for any Star Wars fan with a sense of humor!I received this book from the LibraryThings Early Reviewers program in exchange for a fair review.

      In a follow up to Darth Vader and Son, Vader's Little Princess, and Goodnight Darth Vader comes Darth Vader and Friends, a humorous continuations at the Dark Lord's plight as raises his two children. Containing little scenes blending the funny things kids do with some of the more memorable parts of Star Wars, Jeffrey Brown has shown himself once again to be the best person for writing humorous illustrated books about Star Wars. If you liked the above books, or his Jedi Academy series, you'll definitely like this one too.

      This marks the fourth of these Star Wars strips collection that Jeffrey Brown has produced. Brown's cartooning is full of undeniable wit and charm, but after so many such collections the novelty has unsurprisingly worn off. If this is your first exposure to Brown's works or you're just a die hard Star Wars fan you will love this collection, I just wish Brown would finally turn his talents to opener material.
    • 5/5
      This was awesome, but that's not surprising. These little books by Brown are hilarious for the most part. They take current life and delightfully mash it with Star Wars lore and such. Not to mention he also takes all that and twists in wicked funny and surprising ways.I think my favorite page was the one in the Cantina with the Dum-Dum-Dum stuff. But a lot of the Luke/Leia and Darth stuff was funny as well. And the addition of Han Solo and Chewie made it nice and well rounded funniness.Just an all around fun book not just for kids, but for all ages.
    • 3/5
      Funny, but not quite as funny as the first two! Still, I chuckled, as did my daughter, so it was well worth the read!
    • 4/5
      Another collection by Jeffrey Brown that's as adorable as it is hilarious! The clone panels were my favorite, and the last page made me 'aww' out loud. :)
    • 5/5
      This book is so cute! Another great book about Star Wars characters living their lives and Darth Vader learning how to manage his kids and their friends. Loved it!
    • 3/5
      Looks like a kids' book, more of a grown ups' book. Humor totally wasted on children who don't get parenting angst. It would be better if my kids had ever seen any Star Wars movie, which they are too young for still.
    • 3/5
      Adorable, of course, and Brown this time really digs deep into the Star Wars universe for fodder. Or Bantha poodoo, if you wish. However you say it, its super cute and fun for any SW fan.
    • 4/5
      Star Wars fans with a sense of humor and any sort of relationship with kids will love this book (and its predecessors). Jeffrey Brown takes his distinct artistic style and brings to life the Star Wars universe. Not only are the major characters distinctive, but the details on the Star Wars universe (spaceships, background characters, weapons, etc.) shows the love that Brown has for the source material.I shared with my 10-year-old daughter and she liked it also despite not getting some of the references that someone who is intimately familiar with the movies will get.
    • 3/5
      This is the fourth collection of one-panel cartoons that Jeffrey Brown has released, with the blessing of Lucasfilm. His humor blends geeky Star Wars references with amusing-and-cute-kids episodes. A few were obscure to me, most were OK, and a few made me laugh out loud. For example, who wouldn't want to go after a pinata with a light saber? Still funny and creative, but getting a bit stale except to the hard-core fan.
    • 5/5
      Books written off a simple concept often work the first time and then quickly have diminishing returns. Just look at the William Shakespeare's Star Wars series, which was quite funny in the first book but quickly gets old after that. That's what makes the Jeffrey Brown books a nice refreshing change of pace. Yes, they are still working off the same simple concept. Yes, they continue to come out each year just in time for the spring holidays (Mothers Day and Fathers Day). But they continue to work for two reasons. The first is that Brown's illustrations really are adorable and charming. I'm less surprised that he continues to put out the books than that I haven't seen illustrations from the books popping up as greeting cards. The second is that Brown so perfectly has an image of Star Wars in his mind and he continues to work with that. So when we see a little Han and Luke in the sandbox and Han says "Do you think your sister likes me?" and Luke says "She says you're imagining things.", on one level it's simply a cute card, but for those people who love Star Wars, it hearkens back to so much more.
    • 5/5
      This graphic novel is sure to delight Star Wars fans with its amusing one-page cartoons. We discover what Luke, Leia, Han, and their friends might have been like as kids. It’s obvious that their destiny lies in saving the galaxy and it is interesting to see everyone on the same side in these early years. Vader has his hands full with these imaginative kids and their friends. The humor lies in the fact that none of these antics really happened, but they might have, if they had remained as a happy family. But then, that was not their destiny.
    • 4/5
      In this, the last (maybe?) volume book in his bestselling Darth Vader series, Jeffrey Brown takes a close look at the friendships between characters in the Star Wars Universe. From Darth Vader and the Emperor to Leia and Ewok pals, and more Jeffrey Brown brings his character wit, humor, and illustrations to this series. Brown’s childlike drawings capture the characters we all know and love to a t, allowing us to see them in a whole new light. A must have for any fan of Brown or the Star Wars Universe.
