|title=Star Wars Rogue One: Mission Files
|rating=4.5
|genre=Confident Readers
|summary=Out of several books I've seen to tie-in to the seventh official cinema movie in the ''Star Wars'' universe, this – and the resulting review – is the greatest source of spoilers. What you get is a surprisingly mature look at the background and events to ''Rogue One'' for such a juvenile book, with some fine stills photographs, and a volume that introduces all the main characters and gears you up to understand and enjoy a lot of the events of the film. So if you don't want to know those in advance, look away now. But certainly consider this as a purchase for reading once you've watched it.

|summary=The general perception is that to become a leading British actor, you need the fillip of Eton or somesuch education. But you don't have to be an actor to make a great film. ''Gravity'' for instance has extended scenes where the only thing natural is the performers' faces – everything else, even their bodies, was made in Britain by people using computers. The eight ''Harry Potter'' films, also made in the UK, needed a lot of computing power as well, but also a lot of craftsmen with their hands on tools and a keen eye. What better way to start training the young reader into that side of things, than with tasking them with making a, er, hippogriff?
