Such a great book I decided to get out of a slump by reading my childhood favorites and Stuart Gibbs is one of my favorites! I loved reading the first fun jungle books and space has always been a love of mine!
The cast is super charming and the mystery was very engaging even now that I’ve grown up!
TW for a little hint of ableism but it’s not really touched on

Very minor talk of deafness and simply giving people implants so sign language doesn’t really exist anymorecedardleland's review against another edition

A good story for introducing kids to the realities of space travel, a little too much potty humor for my taste and with a splash of ableism that really pulled me out of it. There's a scene where the main character says that people don't use any sign languages anymore (this book is set a little in the future), the implication being that Deaf people don't exist anymore because of ?technology?. This is portrayed as a good/neutral thing.
