Delivery was at time and book was in good condition!I loved this book!!In this book, A girl called Suzy is narrator and is the main character. She is a terrific student and She is introvert she is 11-12 year old and she can't see animals getting hurt. Her best friend, Franny, drowned. Suzy can't believe it because Franny was an excellent swimmer... Suzy thinks, Franny must have been stunk by deadly jellyfish and Suzy wanna prove it... She doesn't speak anymore... She is researching about jellyfish... Read book to know more!Now, I think, a 11-12 year old girl uses her brain more than I do...She plans everything! And now! She is thinking to meet a jellyfish expert to help her and prove, what she is saying is truth!!!

The book is about the struggle of a twelve year Suzy, who is determined to prove that her best friend Franny wasn’t drowned but must have been stung by a deadly jellyfish. As Franny was an excellent swimmer. By the start of her seventh grade starts her quest to prove that the jellyfish are the reason for the loss of Franny from their lives. But Suzy has turned into the person she never was, she has become insanely quiet from the person that she was. This has every person around her worried as they are unable to make Suzy speak her mind like she always used to. The book describes all the research that Suzy does when she stumbles upon an article on a fish tank about how numbers of people are killed every year when stung by a jellyfish during a Science visit to an aquarium. That’s when Suzy decides that she will tell everyone what killed Franny through her Science paper presentation for seventh grade. The book has so much to offer apart from the beautiful story that Ali Benjamin woven, the story about how middle school changes everything for someone like Suzy who loses her best friend Franny way before she drowned while on a vacation. This book is about discovering the meaning of care and love when you have no hope left in yourself. It’s about how your family is always there to support you no matter what stupid decision you take to prove something you are determined about. This book is about the beautiful journey of Suzy in the middle school when she has no hopes and no friends and the transformation that happens further. Ali Benjamin has done a fabulous job in writing this book, so well researched about such a different topic like jellyfish. This book kept me engrossed till the end in every part of it. Frankly, I was never even bothered to read about jellyfishes and their various species, Thanks to the author now that even I am engrossed to know more and more about jellyfishes just like Suzy.Certainly one of the very finest children’s book about a knowledgeable topic that should be read for the knowledge and the story that it has to offer.

This book will teach you to deal with the loss of your best friend and your own imperfections. This book is for all age groups
