Bookroo's summary

Zack's adventure to the crystal planet Juno takes a twist when he's paired with the school bully, Seth. As they explore, Zack finds a mysterious object and faces a dilemma: keep the discovery to himself or share the credit with his unhelpful partner. Will Zack choose personal glory or embrace the power of teamwork? Dive into this interstellar journey where friendship and integrity are put to the test.

From the publisher

Join Zack as he takes a trip to the planet Juno, makes an amazing discovery, and learns the importance of teamwork! In Journey to Juno, Zack joins his school’s Explorer’s Club and visits Juno, a newly discovered planet of crystals. The group is split into pairs as they begin exploring, and Zack is less than thrilled when he is partnered with Seth Stevens, the Phase 2 bully! Seth is happy to let Zack do the work while he goofs off, so when Zack stumbles upon a really cool object, he hides it so he can show it to the Explorer’s Club himself. But when the time comes for Zack to accept praise for his discovery, will he decide to share the credit? With easy-to-read language and illustrations on almost every page, the Galaxy Zack chapter books are perfect for beginning readers.
