Sweet, straightforward story of a professor, Donald Astropopov, from the planet, Juno, who lands in a village on Earth with his dog. The townspeople welcome him, he learns that they grow plants in gardens, shows them how to make a greenhouse, discovers winter and winter fun, and realizes as he spends time with the dentist's daughter, Hortensia, that he loves her. The book story ends happily with a wedding.
The illustrations are nice. The writing is very matter-of-fact, but lovely. (
