Overview
Ā
A month before the end of the school year, Plutoās frightened mom broke down Plutoās bedroom door. What came next were doctorās appointments, a diagnosis of depression, and a big black hole that still sits on Plutoās chest, making it too hard to do anything.
Ā
Pluto canāt explain to her mom why she canāt do the things she used to love. And it isnāt until Plutoās dad threatens to make her move with him to the cityāwhere he believes his money, in particular, could helpāthat Pluto becomes desperate enough to do whatever it takes to be the old Pluto again.
Ā
She develops a plan and a checklist: If she takes her medication, if she goes to the planetarium with her mom for her birthday, if she successfully finishes her summer school work with her tutor, if she goes to Meredithās birthday party . . . if she does all the things that ānormalā Pluto would do, she can stay with her mom in Jersey. But it takes a new therapist, a new tutor, and a new (and cute) friend with a checklist and plan of her own for Pluto to learn that there is no old and new Pluto. Thereās justĀ her.
