Planet Joy

An amazing story of humour and kindness.

Trust Joy Applebloom to make friends with a new girl that didn't even like her. Joy got double luck. She got a new, cheerful teacher that's even better than Mrs Hunter. (no offence)

Beautiful ook of joy

It’s a really good book and heartwarming and I think this book goes and reaches out mostly to the girls because joy is a girls obvs

This book is about someone who is a climate activist and at school they make a new friend called Phoebe Dark, who teaches her about astronomy. Also they get a new teacher because their old teacher has a hip replacement. They think their old teacher will be sad but they then agree to share their lessons.

It was full of joy and has loads of space facts.
The main character was a girl called Joy

I liked this book because it was funny and also taught me that everyone has their own language and you have to learn it for them to respect you.

this is super

This is the third book in the series and is told from the viewpoint of Joy Applebloom. Joy is a ten-year-old girl; the sort who looks for rainbows when it's raining and silver linings. Joy's family have stopped travelling and have moved in with Grandad meaning that Joy finally feels that she has found a place she can truly call home. She has a new best friend and together they are navigating their way through their last year in primary school. But then a new girl joins the class and Joy learns that although she may have travelled, there's a whole world she hasn't explored yet.

What is brilliant about this book is that it is teeming with facts which are woven within the story. Facts about Space and the oceans. For instance, the International Space Station is moving past Earth at a speed of 320 kilometres in a very straight line above us like a motorway or a landing strip in outer space or that the oceans are connected so actually there is really only one ocean, and it covers more than seventy per cent of the Earth’s surface and holds ninety-seven per cent of the whole planet’s water. It is so large that only five per cent of it has ever been explored. The Pacific is the biggest ocean. It is one hundred and sixty-eight million square kilometres, which is about three hundred Europes, plus a bit.  This makes this story have appeal to a wider audience.
A funny, enjoyable read.
