So this is the first I’ve heard of this (and what a pleasant surprise it is!) but apparently a NEW graphic novel is coming out next month, April 4th, 2017, and it’s, ta-da, the Prequel Trilogy, aimed at kids between 8-12. If you recognize this at all, perhaps you’ve seen the Trilogy edition, which came out last year? (Look Here) But, I admit I wasn't even aware of that, however this Prequel one is more up my alley.
This hardcover edition will include all three movies. Curiously, Disney has already published some of it’s contents. The Attack of the Clones book had a paperback release back in September 2016. I do not know if it’s a sample or the complete movie. I’ve even found one available listing for it on Ebay. I cannot afford to buy this myself but for anyone interested, here it is. The listing also includes a few preview images and I’ve uploaded three of the pages.
Also, there was a french release by Delcourt and this blog posted four HQ digital images. In it, you can see how Padme looks. Coloring is beautiful. I came across the Delcourt Edition for The Phantom Menace too.
In the mean time, I’m going to wait for the April hardcover release or a digital release of this Junior Graphic Novel. And when I do get it, I will make an effort to post all of the content if by then no one else has.
Wookieepedia has a small article for the novel already, here.

I’ve got to say, I was already impressed with the artwork on the covers, so cute! But I looked up Matteo’s work, and it’s flipping gorgeous! Guys, you’re going to love it. Here’s a large preview of a scene with Padme and Anakin in it. The facebook posts are smaller in size, but showed samples in color.
