9. Pluto Day: Now demoted to the status of dwarf planet, Pluto was discovered by Clyde Tombaugh in February 1930 and named by Venetia Burney, an 11-year-old schoolgirl from England with a fascination for classical mythology.
💜 Read a book with a science theme (sci-fi counts), a scientist character, a character who makes a discovery, or a character who enjoys science. You can also read any book published in 2006 (the year Pluto was reclassified to dwarf planet), a book set in England, or a book with any celestial object on its cover.
