This is an adorable and informative look at Pluto, dwarf planet and, most recently, kicked out of the solar system. No longer classified as the ninth planet in our solar system, let me tell you, it caused a lot of controversy in my life. I still refuse to accept Pluto's demotion, so this book was perfect for me.

'Pluto is Peeved!' follows Pluto as he travels around a science museum, interacting with a whole range of exhibits to figure out why his status was changed. A lot of detail has gone into this book- not only is it friendly for much younger children, it also has more information in the back pages for anyone wishing to find out more detailed histories of the exhibits. I actually found out quite a lot reading this, including that Brontosaurus's are no longer called Brontosaurus's, and that Charon and Pluto are considered a 'double planet' and orbit each other. So cool.

Finishing this, I feel even more passionately about Pluto being welcomed back into our solar system. This is such a wholesome read, and the art style is really cute, so overall I had a brilliant reading experience with this. I would love a hardcover copy of this, eventually, for my 'Space' shelf.

This is a cute and informative little book. I work with kids who often think Pluto "no longer exists". I hope this book can help kids understand the situation.

Pluto is Peeved is a fun, enjoyable book that talks about Ploto taken out of the planet list. The book starts with Pluto feeling really bad and unimportant, because she's taken out of the planet list. One by one she visits Neptun, scientists, etc to ask and learn. She thinks she's too small to explore. She talks to other planets like Earth, and then visits other creatures in the museum like dinosaurs, germs, and more to listen to their stories so that she understands being small doesn't matter.
I thought it was a great book to teach about astronomy and other lessons to small kids. it's in a cartoon style. I really liked the drawings, the simplicity of the language. And there is more information at the back of the book and further resources.
Really recommended to parents.

Pluto is Peeved! but I'm not! Jacqueline Jules brings science to life in a nerdier version of Night at the Museum. Planets and other exhibits roam the library learning about how scientist are always changing their views based on new research. Some of the exhibits benefit while others, like Pluto, feel slighted.

This book is in a graphic novel format and we follow Pluto through the museum. Dave Roman's illustrations are simple but effective and welcoming. Pluto is trying to figure out why he has been demoted and why nobody is interested in him anymore. Ultimately, good science studies everything and Pluto is pleased. Another great aspect of this book is the scientific explanations at the end for those who want to no more about each exhibit visited as well as the sources documented, including websites for further study. This would be a great book for a science classroom as well as an English classroom when studying ways of storytelling as well as citations.

As somebody who grew up with Pluto as a planet, I get where Pluto is coming from in this story! I think this does a really good job of introducing kids to some of these scientific concepts, and perhaps reminding adults that just because we don’t like the change, it does make sense!

I think the format of this book (comic book layout) could be a good options for those kids that are having trouble understanding scientific topics. Overall, it was an interesting take on science especially our solar system.

I received an ARC of this book via Netgalley in exchange for an honest review.
