May the 4th be with you with the adorably cute and fabulous "Star Wars Epic Yarns" range from Jack and Holman Wang (Chronicle Books)

May the 4th be with you! You have probably guessed that we're incurable Star Wars Geeks - I've slowly introduced Charlotte to Star Wars through brilliant books for kids and the movies of course, and I really really wish I'd have had a set of these to hand when she was really tiny. No matter though, today is internationally known as "Star Wars Day" so let's take a look at Star Wars Epic Yarns - a truly brilliant idea from the same very talented guys who brought you the Felt Classics range.

As you can see from the covers, the books feature some truly amazing felt homages to favourite scenes in the movies. Pretty much everything you see is made of felt (you will probably squee with excitement like we did when we saw the tiny and very cute felt Ewoks and I really loved the felt versions of the Millennium Falcon and the classic X-Wing too!)

If you're a geek mum or dad (like me) and want to get your tiniest tinies off to a cracking start, exploring the Star Wars universe in a fun and kid-friendly way, then you really do need these in your life. Heck, just buy them as collector's items - they're utterly adorable. Hoping that other Star Wars episodes follow soon (we might even be able to stomach a felt version of Jar-Jar Binks, that's how brilliant the scenes in these stories are).

Charlotte's best bit: A felt Wicket introducing himself to Princess Leia
Daddy's favourite bit: Felt Han Solo giving a felt Greedo what for!
