Battle at Teth (Star Wars: The Clone Wars) Review
"Battle at Teth" retells a chapter from "The Clone Wars " film. As the title indicates, this picture book covers the Republic assault of the Separatist stronghold on Teth. The objective of the siege is the retrieval of Jabba the Hutt's son. Far from being a literal retelling, the focus and emphasis is curious. In the film, this sequence shows the development of Anakin Skywalker's relationship with his new Padawan, Ahsoka Tano. In contrast, Ahsoka isn't even mentioned in this book. Instead, the emphasis in put on the relationship between Anakin and Clone Captain Rex. Through loyalty and perseverance, they survive the campaign and succeed in their mission to rescue Rotta the Huttlet. Given the relatively large time frame, the book is quite abbreviated. Whether it's the ascent of the monastery wall or the duel with Asajj Ventress, the narrative moves quickly so there is little detail. This brevity is fine given the target audience of second and third graders. For a more indepth retelling of the battle, advanced readers (fourth graders) should get "The New Padawan." Kirsten Mayer's adaptation is good and the attractive illustrations were all lifted from the film. The page layouts fit galactic style. Packed with combat and military themes, this particular read will best appeal to the boys. "Battle at Teth" is a fun Clone Wars adventure.
