Summary: The planet Pluto experiences the shock of his life when he is told that he is no more one of the nine planets. Pluto feels lost and crushed and tries to protest, but without luck. On his journey to find his new identity, he talks to comets, meteoroids and asteroids, but he does not fit in anywhere. Finally, he runs into a group of dwarf planets, and they are just like him. So, in the end, he finds his position in the solar system. In 2006, the International Astronomical Union (IAU) degraded and reclassified Pluto as a dwarf planet; this event is the starting point for this story.
