"Big Joe, Big Joe, Big Joe will carry me. Big Joe will make the perfect soldier!" Private Peaceful by Michael Morpurgo "It was Big Joe's scream that woke me. He shouted and pointed back over his shoulder into the field. I looked, and then I saw." Private Peaceful by Michael Morpurgo

Big Joe is a fun, loving character in Private Peaceful. He is very innocent and has a beautiful love for nature. He does not have any characteristics in him like revenge. he also like to sit up in his tree singing oranges and lemons.
he is charlie ,Thomas and big Joe's grandma
Big Joe had meningitis while only 3 weeks old, he suffered irreversible damage and is now brain damaged and has learning difficulties. due to this he is unable to attend school like Charlie and Tommo. Although brain damaged big Joe is loved no less in the Peaceful household and is very much the centre of the family.
Because 'oranges and lemons' is supposed to send babies to sleep and in privet peaceful obviously Big Joe has some kind of disability so when he sings 'oranges and lemons' it comforts him like rocking would comfort him and the song has a catchy, rocky rhythm to it. I hope that helps :)
