A panel from the upcoming Star Wars Adventures Annual #1.
Is this canon or part of IDW’s more kid-focused books?
I believe the answer to both of those questions is “yes,” since I think all the kid-focused content (IDW books, Forces of Destiny shorts, etc.) are all canon.
I figured the IDW books fell in the same category as Lego Star Wars: The Freemaker Adventures.
Does that mean that books like Chewie and the Porgs is also canon?
According to the link you provided, yes.
Chewie and the Porgs is a canon young readers Star Wars picture book
OK, bad example. But stuff like Freemaker Adventures is, to my knowledge (I actually read the wiki page this time), not canon.
For some reason it made more sense to me that the young reader stuff fell into the same category.
