The two most important things to know about Pluto Timoney:ย ย (1) sheโs alwaysย loved outer space (obviously); and (2) herย favorite season is summer, the time to goย to the boardwalk, visit the planetarium,ย and work in her momโs pizzeria.
This summer, when Plutoโs turningย thirteen, is different. Pluto has just beenย diagnosed with depression, and she feelsย like a black hole is sitting on her chest,ย making it hard to do anything. Whenย Plutoโs dad threatens to make her moveย to the cityโwhere he believes his moneyย could help her get betterโPluto comes upย with a plan to do whatever it takes to beย her old self again. If she does everythingย that old, โnormalโ Pluto would do, sheย can stay with her mom. But it takes a newย therapist, new tutor, and new (cute) friendย with a plan of her own for Pluto to seeย that there is no old or new her. Thereโsย just Pluto, discovering more about herselfย every day.
