This junior novelization tells the story of the film with language friendly to the younglings in the fandom. Though meant for a younger audience, it's true to the film, with no major scenes cut out like in subsequent junior novelizations in the series. In fact, it adds to the overall experience with a section of full color photos to enjoy!
