We went through an intense Star Wars phase last year and I was desperate to find Star Wars material in Spanish. I found some novels that nearly killed me as I tried to read them out loud to my son - both the vocabulary and the vosotros (after all these books were originally published in Spain) left us exhausted.
Fortunately, the Star Wars comic books & graphic novels came to the rescue. Pictures + text (still that vosotros but hey, it's preparation for Spanish Lit).
Last year I read them to my 6 year old son; this summer he's reading them again on his own. The suggested age range is 9-12 year olds. Check them out:
