It’s time to celebrate Star Wars Reads!
Launched in 2011, Star Wars Reads is a month-long celebration of reading for all ages. Created by Disney Publishing and Lucasfilm, Star Wars Reads honors the magic of reading through a commitment to inspiring the next generation of storytellers and innovators. In years past, Star Wars Reads activities have included book giveaways, demonstrations by illustrators, and more.
This October, Disney Publishing and Star Wars join forces for a celebration of reading geared toward librarians, educators, young readers and teens. The campaign — focused on the power of storytelling and community building for the Lucasfilm Publishing program — includes coloring pages, games, trivia, printable keepsakes, and crafting activities.
Grab a new book, an old book, a comic or a guidebook and dive into Star Wars Reads month.
