(3) K-3 Illustrated by Guy Francis. Mike Brown's discovery of several new objects in the solar system led to Pluto's reclassification as a dwarf planet. Rusch shows the scientific process at work by including Brown's mistakes as well as his accomplishments. Francis's illustrations feature cartoony Earth-based scenes and more realistic depictions of outer space.
