Synopsis
A New York Times BestsellerA National Book Award FinalistSuzy Swanson has always known things that other kids don't, like the sleep patterns of ants and that the average middle-schooler contains about 20 million of Shakespeare's atoms. But she doesn't know how her best friend's life could end before Suzy could make up for the worst thing she'd ever done to her. Everyone says that it was an accident. That sometimes things "just happen." Suzy won't believe it. After her best friend dies in a drowning accident, she's convinced that the true cause of the tragedy was a rare jellyfish sting. Retreating into a silent world of imagination, Suzy crafts a plan to prove her theory -- even if it means traveling the globe, alone.Age Range: 11-13 Grade Level: 4-8 Lexile Measure: 740L, This stunning debut novel about grief and wonder was an instant New York Times bestseller and captured widespread critical acclaim, including selection as a 2015 National Book Award finalist After her best friend dies in a drowning accident, Suzy is convinced that the true cause of the tragedy must have been a rare jellyfish sting--things don't just happen for no reason. Retreating into a silent world of imagination, she crafts a plan to prove her theory--even if it means traveling the globe, alone. Suzy's achingly heartfelt journey explores life, death, the astonishing wonder of the universe...and the potential for love and hope right next door. Oddlot Entertainment has acquired the screen rights to The Thing About Jellyfish, with Gigi Pritzker set to produce with Bruna Papandrea and Reese Witherspoon.
