From a Certain Point of View (Star Wars)

A collection of forty short stories that reimagine moments from the original Star Wars film through the perspectives of supporting characters. Created in honor of the film's fortieth anniversary, the book features contributions from more than forty authors, including Gary Whitta, Meg Cabot, Nnedi Okorofor, Pablo Hidalgo, Pierce Brown, and Wil Wheaton, among many others. Each story offers a different viewpoint on events from the film. Examples include Captain Antilles's experience bridging Rogue One and A New Hope, Aunt Beru's intimate character study, a reimagining of the trash compactor creature, Grand Moff Tarkin's perspective, and Biggs Darklighter's role in the Death Star attack. All author proceeds from the book are donated to First Book, a nonprofit providing books and learning materials to educators and organizations serving children in need. Penguin Random House contributed $100,000 to First Book, and Disney/Lucasfilm donated 100,000 children's books valued at $1,000,000 to support the organization's mission.
