 * Big Question #1: What makes this book good? 1. **

Big Question #2: What would make this book better?** As a critic, it’s important to be honest. And honestly, some parts of some books are pretty bad. This book would be better if it didn't skip so much of the time of Anikins life for exampl on one page Anikin is just a boy but on the next he is 10 years older. So if you really ask me put more segments of Anikins middle life (teenager, Adult) The most important thing the author wants you to know is that if you break and turn on something you can still turn it around and make things right. Know matter what you do if you mess up you can always end up fixing it and fofilling your destiny. That is the authurs main idea of the book The Rise and Fall of Darth Vader.
 * Big Question #3: What’s the one most important thing the author wants you to know?** This is the main idea. It’s almost as though you could squeeze a whole book down to a __single sentence__ and say that’s what it was all about.
