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)

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.

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.
