Pluto got the shock of his life when he was kicked out of the
famous nine. His planet status was stripped away, leaving him lost and
confused. Poor Pluto! On his quest to find a place where he belongs, he talks
to comets, asteroids, and meteoroids. He doesn’t fit in anywhere! But when
Pluto is about to give up, he runs into a dwarf planet and finally finds his
place in the solar system. This feel-good picture book combines a popular
science topic with character education themes of self discovery, acceptance, and
friendship. It has bonus material in the back matter to support
curriculum.
Ok, get ready! The cover is about to be revealed!

Is this not the cutest? I totally want to be Pluto's friend and maybe it's just me but this brings me back to 4th grade when I learned about the planets and Pluto was still a planet. My Very Energetic Mother Just Served Us Nine Pizzas anyone? :)
