For the final project of Mixed Media class with Professor Lenny Long, I created a pop-up book about Missing Pluto. This project took me about three weeks from start to finish.

Missing Pluto
Written by Sang Eun Dawn Lee
Pluto grows tired of feeling isolated among the planets of Solar System,
because he is too far away from everyone.
One day, he escapes his orbit and runs away from the Solar System,
then goes on an adventure to outer space.
But soon, Pluto discovers that outer universe is not such a pretty place to live.
When he encounters Red giants, they frighten him,
and not long after, he gets sucked into a black hole.
Meanwhile, the other planets from Solar System wonder where Pluto had gone.
Sun orders comets and asteroids to find Pluto.
Right before Pluto is torn apart into thousand pieces within the monsterous black hole,
he is rescued by comets.
Pluto returns home safely and is welcomed by everyone.
