The Care and Feeding of a Pet Black Hole by Michelle Cuevas

5.0

This is one of those few delightful children's books that manages to, through the magic of excellent writing, portray a child character who is astute, yet not pretentious, witty, yet not bratty, introspective, yet not whiny, and gets involved in a storyline that is silly, fun, and ridiculous, AND serious, sad, and thought-provoking all at once. In short, this thin volume has everything either a child or an adult could possibly want in a great book. I'm a fan for life, Michelle Cuevas!

PS- Highly recommend reading this at the same time as [b:Astrophysics for People in a Hurry|32191710|Astrophysics for People in a Hurry|Neil deGrasse Tyson|https://images.gr-assets.com/books/1479535337s/32191710.jpg|52832605]. Cuevas did her research and the parallels are wonderful!
