Description

In December of 2015 Episode VII: The Force Awakens premiered and my daughter turned 1 year and 7 months. Getting caught in the marketing hype, I bought her a copy of Vader's Little Princess by Jeffrey Brown and she fell in love with it. We read it every night for months, often multiple times a day. We bought her all the books in the series. From there she would point and call out "Papa" (as in "Papa Vader") every time she spotted a picture of Darth Vader. She would dance and play an imaginary flute every time she heard the Cantina song. She has watched the original trilogy multiple times (because I'm a terrible parent). By age 2, she could name all the bounty hunters. So if there's a piece of modern art that already holds nostalgia, this is it. Vader's Little Princess and Jeffrey Brown won an Eisner for Best Humor Publication in 2014.

This is really fun, and I loved your description. Very precious. Don't ever feel like a bad parent for introducing your child to Star Wars. *I* can't even name all the bounty hunters, haha! Thank you for sharing this treasure.

It's definitely funny and (I write this next part as the father of a much older daughter), probably timeless.

Absolutely amazing to have this in your collection. There's nothing better than to have a piece that's not only been seen by countless people in books and calendars, but also contains deeply personal meaning to you as well.
