Star Wars was the most anticipated movie in 1977. Who knew that when Kevin Thompson stood in line at the theater with the rest of the world, he would later be taking you on his journey from the secretive audition and getting the part on the most sought-after movie of all time five years later. It was destiny, a trilogy was born. A dream that many people dream about. He is a story teller and this book promises you emotionally and physically that you are with him on his Journey to Endor. He played an Ewok in the Star Wars Saga, Return of the Jedi. He was one of five American Actors who did all the stunts in the forest. Swinging on vines, explosions, and battling the Storm Troopers. The struggles of being only 4 foot 5 inches tall and running in costumes that had 2 inches thick of foam and fur while not being able to see in the Ewok costume heads. He got to play make-believe in a real world of imagination. George Lucas' imagination. Everything he did on Return of the Jedi at 22 years old actually molded his life in a universal way. Kevin Thompson was pushed physically and mentally performing stunts that otherwise he would have never known he was capable. He grew up quick on the set. He proved to himself that his stature was not going to hinder him on Endor and in his life. His protective bubble living with his family and friends on a cul-de-sac popped wide open and he has lived his life with no restrictions and no regrets. Get ready for this hero journey. It is as if you are sitting in the tree tops with him blowing the horn ready for battle with his fellow Ewoks. "Size matters not. Look at me. Judge me by my size, do you?"- Yoda
