Stitch and the Samurai by Hiroto Wada

Rating: 4 out of 5.

First of all, this is definitely not for kids 13+… I would read this to my 5 year old and he would adore it!! I think 13+ have other things they would rather be reading that stuff like this. Unless they’re a hardcore Disney fan… That’s my opinion at least. 

Second, that’s actually three and a half stars rounded up because of the three or four times it made me laugh out loud. That and the drawings made it a decent read.

Third and last, but not least, the drawing and storyline weren’t terrible, but definitely a bit of a reach. Funny at times, but eyebrow raising most the rest of the time. I am, however, a serious Disney lover, so I thoroughly enjoyed myself. I’m assuming this was written for folks like me, big fans of Disney and Stitch in particular, so I’m not dinging the novel for being a little ridiculous. 

Overall I really enjoyed this!! I would recommend this for 5-8 year olds because they’re smarter than people give them credit, but do keep in mind there’s a warning about violence. I also recommend this to serious fans of Stitch or Disney. Enjoy the ridiculousness and don’t take it too seriously.

Thanks so much to NetGalley and Disney Manga for allowing me to read this for my honest and unbiased opinion.
