Na sua obra O Menino da Lua, Ziraldo criou uma turma de mais nove meninos, habitantes de cada um dos planetas. E pretende, em novas obras, contar a história de cada um deles sem, contudo, obedecer à velha ordem dos planetas do Sistema Solar. No ano passado, A menina das estrelas interrompeu a série no seu começo, e aqui está o primeiro menino interplanetário a se apresentar para reiniciá-la: O menino de Urano. Sua história, contada aqui, parecerá, à primeira vista, uma história antiga, porque é um conto de fadas. Acontece que ele aconteceu—ou acontecerará—daqui a 300 mil anos.

Em meio a uma produção literária intensa e animada, Ziraldo escreveu um conto de fadas que ficou, durante anos, perdido em uma gaveta. E junto a ele, no mesmo envelope, um bilhetinho de próprio punho: “Vamos guardar para uma próxima oportunidade”. E, como nos contos mágicos, o texto vem a ser encontrado no momento exato, quando marcamos um ano da morte de nosso autor.
