Another of my son's favourites.

A cute little book for last night's bedtime story. Not the best though since the rhyming scheme was really off in some areas, which would jar on my ear. My son didn't really notice or care, but for me it just sounded wrong. Author is obviously a big Star Wars fan.

Such a cute little book! Made me laugh out loud - especially at the Palpatine one!

Although Jeffery Brown's Goodnight Darth Vader features an especially for die-hard Star Wars aficionados likely delightful multitude of small snippets of related movie scenarios and trivia (accompanied by fun and entertainingly imaginative yet still realistic to the Star Wars movies illustrations) I cannot really claim that I have found the so-called bedtime story Darth Vader tells to young Luke and Leia (about various Star Wars characters making their preparations for bedtime and sleeping) all

Just a fun book - put a smile on my face - really needed it.

Loved the idea more than the book.Darth Vader puts little Leia and young Luke to sleep by reading them a book, of how everyone in the Star Wars realm goes to sleep. This book made me realize how many Star Wars characters I don't know. Honestly, Jeffrey Brown dug very far to find them. Aside from the fact that all pages rhymed, I didn't see the humor in any of them. I'd reserve this one for a die hard fan and quiz them with it: "Can you name this character? Can you!!"

I heard a lot about this series of books and I decided to start with Goodnight Darth Vader, sadly it was just not meant to be. What I expected was: Leia + Luke causing trouble in the ship because they don't want to sleep. Insert lots of hilarious situations and a Darth Vader trying his best to be a father. What I got was: Darth Vader putting kids to bed and telling them a super boring story of how everyone is going to sleep. The ending was bland and just sad.Maybe if I hadn't know what to expect...

This was quite adorable and sweet but not really my favourite out of all the Darth Vader series. I don't know if it's just too played out at this point or if this felt too short but it just didn't resonate with me the same way the other two books did. I also didn't really find anything funny about this one but it did put a smile on my face.My favourite panels were the one of Queen Amidala, Jabba the Hut and the rancor, and General Ackbar. The ending was really cute as well. |Featherbrained Books...

2.5*_____________________________ Another short *Star Wars* GN, this one is about Vader telling Leia and Luke a bedtime story about how everyone else falls asleep. He ends up falling asleep before they do.Again, not impressed. But, I did like this one a little better than Vader's Little Princess.

Still cute but not as good as the first two books.

A funny bedtime story, but while previous two volumes made me laugh to tears, this was just ok for me besides a few well done gags.

I loved the first one in this series, Darth Vader and Son, I laughed aloud and thought it was just terrific. The ones following it, not so much. This one, vs The Princess, has more of an arc to it, and the arc pertains to Darth getting the twins to sleep and imagines all the Star Wars characters with their sleep issues or ways of getting to sleep. Cute! I have read maybe 20 Of Mr. Brown's books and am one of his super fans, but I have to say I am less a fan of his Star Wars stuff than I am of th...

Spoof! This is a funny bedtime story for any Star Wars fan. Darth Vader is trying to put his kids to sleep and they won't sleep so he tells them a story. I have seen the movies, so the characters made sense to me. It is totally frustrating when the children won't go to bed and they just need sleep.I got a great laugh out of this. I read it to the nephew and he loved that there was a robot in it. C-3PO. Not great literature or art, but amusing.

This was a charming and adorable idea in Darth Vader and Son but now it begins to wear thin.Vader is trying to get the twins to go to bed and they want a story. He tells them this rhyming ditty that covers everyone from every Star Wars movie, the cartoons, and probably a video game, or two, as well.This seemed a bit show-offy to me, sort of "Look how much I love Star Wars! I will even call the trash creature by name! (Dianoga) I'm the most Star Warsy fan of all fans." The rhymes are often forced...

Super cute, but the rhyming was really forced at times. Still super cute, though!

From the author/illustrator of Darth Vader and Son comes another little (literally; it's like 5" x 5") picture book of the dark master's parenting trials and tribulations. This time he's attempting to get his toddler-aged twins, Luke and Leia, to go to bed, but they insist on a bedtime story. So Daddy Darth reads them a rhyming account of all the major characters from the first six movies getting ready for bed and falling asleep. The rhymes are great and very tongue-in-cheek; this book will appe...

More Stars Wars fun from Jeffrey Brown. Cute.

Not as funny as Darth Vader and Son or Vader's Little Princess. Those two were a good fit for kids who knew the Star Wars trilogy, and this one is just cute, but not funny.

I saw this book's cover on my library's web site and thought the idea was cute. Darth Vader trying to be a daddy raising his rambunctious twins. So, I checked it out - even though there's nobody in my household that reads at this level.Whatever. It was really cute. My twelve year-old read it and thought it was funny and cute (he loved the baby Ewoks) and nostalgically reminisced about how he used to read these kinds of books. He read the book to me, which brought back wonderful memories of my ow...

I guess I will read anything Jeffrey Brown does, but I guess I realize that these books aren't really for me, as I don’t have children and I’m not really that into Star Wars. Still, this whimsical bed time romp through everyone’s favorite space fantasy continues to highlight Brown’s artistic talents and goofy sensibilities. Coupling a few lines of cute doggerel with a Star Wars character (obscure or important, from the OT or the Prequels, etc.) getting ready for bed is undoubtedly a great bedtim...
