A Julia Eccleshare Pick of the Month March 2021
Jokes a-plenty in this fresh and witty version of a Year 6 school camp with a difference. Set in a not-so-very-different space world in which the kids travel around on flykes and eat bounce cakes (the bounce ingredient ensures they bounce straight into your mouth when you drop them), it captures all the pleasure and pain of a residential school trip. Friendship, first love and having fun fuel this entertaining and slice-of-life story.
A Moon Boy Loves My Best Friend is the third book in the Moon Girl series, but all of the books work perfectly as a standalone read.
A Moon Girl series is perfect for young readers looking for a humorous friendship story with a sci-fi twist, and is packed with quirky illustrations.

Lyla and her friends are off to camp on the moon! They're going moon walking, laser archery shooting and low gravity dancing! And Moonite kids at camp are just so stylish and cool.
When they suggest sneaking out of camp to visit the city, Lyla and her friends can't resist, but then everything starts to go astronomically wrong.

‘A wonderful hilarious science fiction book perfect for fans of Troofriend ’ The School Librarian
‘Cleverly delivers a message about what friendship really means, and the importance of kindness’ LoveReading4Kids
