This calendar is based on the buzzy illustrated book “STAR WARS: The Mandalorian and Child.”
The series has sold over 3 million copies worldwide and more than 100,000 copies in Japan alone. It’s illustrated by Jeffrey Brown, with the Japanese translation by Akiko Tominaga.
The theme is basically “the everyday struggles of galactic parenting,” and the charm is watching the famously stoic Mandalorian fumble his way through raising a baby in these heartwarming illustrations 😳
The calendar covers January through December 2027 in a monthly flip format (15 sheets total), ring-bound onto a triangular stand measuring H156×W180mm.
