Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pluto is too big to be an asteroid and too small to be a planet, so scientists call it a dwarf planet. It’s so far away from the sun that it gets no warmth at all, so it’s covered in a thick layer of ice. Readers learn fun facts such as these as they explore the world of our solar system’s dwarf planets. Informative diagrams, full-color photographs, and accessible text help readers discover more about Pluto and the other dwarf planets in our solar system.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The solar system most of us grew up with included nine planets, with Mercury closest to the sun and Pluto at the outer edge. Then, in 2005, astronomer Mike Brown made the discovery of a lifetime: a tenth planet, Eris, slightly bigger than Pluto. But instead of adding one more planet to our solar system, Brown’s find ignited a firestorm of controversy that culminated in the demotion of Pluto from real planet to the newly coined category of “dwarf” planet. Suddenly Brown was receiving hate mail from schoolchildren and being bombarded by TV reporters—all because of the discovery he had spent years searching for and a lifetime dreaming about. A heartfelt and personal journey filled with both humor and drama, How I Killed Pluto and Why It Had It Coming is the book for anyone, young or old, who has ever imagined exploring the universe—and who among us hasn’t?
