Why didn't the other planets invite Earth to their holiday? When Earth turns up uninvited and finds all the other planets in the hot tub, including Pluto, she discovers why: it looks like she has fleas! But when everyone takes a closer look inside her atmosphere, they're amazed at what they find. An award-winning story that teaches us to be kinder to others.

Riley Z. ★★★★★

The twist with Pluto in the hot tub is such a clever payoff. My kids love pointing out the "flea" detail and asking if Earth really has cooties.

Joshua ★★★★★

Bought this as a gift and even though it's just a short book, the twist ending about why Earth's not invited actually made me laugh out loud. The illustration of the planets in a hot tub is too funny.

Christopher ★★★★☆

My nephew actually laughed out loud at the part where Earth shows up with what looks like fleas—the illustration really sells that awkward moment. I just wish the story had a slightly longer resolution, since the ending felt a bit rushed. Still, it’s a clever and funny take on solar system dynamics
