What's more, his "date" brought her niece along. A niece who turns
out to be Terrel's ballerina nemesis, Tiara Girl! With some Sugar
Plum help, Terrel takes charge of breaking up her father's new
relationship.

From bestselling author Deborah Underwood comes a lively and
heartwarming letter writing exchange between all the planets in
outer space to show the power of perspective. It was an ordinary
day for Mercury, Venus, Earth, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus,
Neptune, (and don't forget Pluto, the dwarf planet). The planets
were circling the Sun, staring into space, until suddenly they spot
something else in their Solar System. What could it be? Who could
it be? The planets have no idea but they're circling to find out.
Whatever it is that something is most definitely, absolutely,
without a doubt NOT a planet. So begins an out-of-this-world pen
pal exchange between the planets and an exoplanet: Dear Exoplanet,
We are excited to have you in the galaxy! XO, Planets Dear Planets,
It is nice to hear from you! But what is an exoplanet? Does it mean
"excellent planet"? XO, Exoplanet Paired with vibrant illustrations
from Jorge Lacera, this STEM-friendly story, told mainly through
letters, reminds readers what happens when we consider another
person's point of view.
