Note: I received an F&G of this book from the publisher at ALA Annual 2019. ( )

A black girl with afro-puffs and a white boy with glasses are spending the night in a tent in the backyard, talking about space and the planets, finding relative sizes to compare them on a scale that regular humans can wrap their minds around; e.g., if Pluto was a pea, Earth would be a golf ball, Mars would be an acorn, Jupiter would be a beach ball, etc. Very cool concept, good art, lends itself to art and science projects (STEAM). Excellent!
