Sometimes the only way to make any sense of my life is to put it all into charts and diagrams . . . but even that just makes me realize how far away from normal my family is, especially my little brother Fred! I hope that you’ll find some useful survival tips in this book, but if not, then at least it’ll cheer you up to know your life is considerably less chaotic than mine!
Stan loves everything to do with space, along with a calming, ordered environment, pie charts, and Venn diagrams. His dinosaur-loving younger brother Fred is the opposite: chaotic, messy, prone to leaving snails under Stan’s bed and ladybirds in his lunchbox. Surely they must have something in common?
As Stanley struggles to cope with his high maintenance brother and his hair-brained schemes he charts all the ups and downs of his life in a series of hilarious infographics in this highly-illustrated and visually-appealing book.

I'm looking forward to read more books by Elaine Wickson. some people might find this book funny because it's silly or boring because it is silly and some people might find silly stuff funny. My favourite character was Fred because he is hilarious. The next reader will definitely love this book because it is very very funny! I will recommend this book to anybody who likes maths and funny books.

This is a book about two brothers who don’t tend to get along. Stan Fox loves space and is a very quiet and calm person. However, his brother Freddie is the complete opposite!!! The book tells the story of these two brothers and how they learn to get along in the end. Although they have their differences, they also find their similarities. I loved this book and would recommend it to anybody if they love comedy!!! I give this book a 5 star rating!!!

I think Stan's little brother is quite like my little sister Poppy!

It's really funny and very detailed. It's a bit like the Wimpy Kid books. The main character Stan is very serious.

Planet Stan is an amazing book ( but also a bit disgusting at the same time.) Stan's brother Frederick picks his nose all the time. My favourite person in this book is Stan because to describe how his life is he uses a pie chart to tell how his life is! His crazy brother Frederick causes utter brother chaos. This is a good book!

I thought that Planet Stan was funny because of Fred widdling in plant pots and Stan nearly getting disqualified from the science fair. I liked stan because he was always humiliated by his brother Fred like when Fred put snails under Stan's bed. I would recommend it to anyone who likes funny books.
