Scholastic

Scholastic is an American book publisher that released a series of One Piece novelizations in 2007. Each book was aimed at ages seven to ten, grade level 2-5, with an MSRP of $4.99 USD. The first two books were available through retail, and at least the first five were available through the school system. Additionally, digital copies of books four and five are available to borrow from the Internet Archive.

These novelizations were based on the 4Kids version of the anime and retained the 4Kids names, terminology and story alterations.

Scholastic will release a coloring book using the One Piece license later this year. It contains over 90 coloring pages featuring characters like Monkey D. Luffy, Nami, Charlotte Linlin, and Kaidou and locations like Fish-Man Island, Punk Hazard, and Whole Cake Island. It will be relelased on August 1, 2023 and cost $15.99 USD.

Novel and Anime differences
In addition to the changes already made to the Japanese version and original manga, the following was changes were made for the novel:
 * At Gold Roger's execution, a Marine reads out his crimes as "treason on the high seas, piracy, pillaging and robbery", none of which are stated in the anime. Additionally, Roger's One Piece speech is prompted by a Marine asking for his final words, rather than a member of the audience.
 * The two sailors who find Luffy in a barrel are given the names Shiro and Tomeo. Shiro is introduced with an internal monologue in which he complains that he's bored and wants to find adventure, a wish he regrets when Alvida attacks them.
 * In the novel, Koby hands out swords to the rest of Alvida's crew, and Heppoko is referred to as Alvida's first mate.
 * Compared to the Anime, Luffy is slightly less oblivious when he arrives on the cruise ship. He has planned on his barrel getting picked up by a passing boat and offers Peppoko and Poppoko a handshake.
 * All of Nami's scenes are omitted.
 * Initially, the narration erroneously describes the Grand Line as a continent. However, later dialogue from Koby correctly identifies it as an area of the sea surrounding the Red Line.
 * Zolo defeats Morgan by blocking his swipe at Luffy's head and kicking him in the face. The 4Kids anime implies that Zolo slashes Morgan's chest, which is depicted but obscured in the uncut version.

Novel and Anime differences

 * The weapons used by the Mountain Bandits and Red Hair Pirates are simply referred to as revolvers, and it is not stated whether the bandit survives being shot by Shanks' men.
 * It is directly stated that Buggy strangles one of his men without touching them.
 * The flashbacks of Chouchou and his owner are imagined by Luffy, and not actual memories.
 * Following the deflected Buggy Ball, Buggy does not use his own men as a shield, and there is no rivalry between Mohji and Cabaji.
 * The fights with Zolo vs Cabaji and Luffy vs Buggy are heavily abridged. Cabaji's fight consists of him attacking Zolo's injury, using spinning tops, and a quick summary of his other abilities; Buggy's attempt to sabotage Zolo with his floating hand is skipped. Luffy and Buggy only take one hit against each other before Shanks is brought up. Nami's simultaneous interaction with Buggy's drunk crew-mate is also omitted.
