(2) 4-6 African American eleven-year-old Zoe is shy around others but has a big imagination. A Madagascan astronomer comes to her father's exotic plant shop, touching off events that help her grow out of her shyness. Woods balances serious issues with humor; Zoe's character is relatable and encouraging to those who are trying, like Zoe, to understand themselves and the world around them.
