“I love how this book gets the fragile ecosystem that is middle school. There’s a purity to the voice that feels very real, very Judy Blume. Loved it!”—R. J. Palacio, writer of Wonder

The Thing About Jellyfish meets The Kind of Friends We Used to Be in this sweet, honest middle grade debut.

If it were up to Mattie Markham, there would be a law that said your family wasn’t allowed to move in the course of the school year. Finally, sixth grade is hard enough without wondering if you’ll be capable of make new friends or worrying that the kids in Pennsylvania won’t like your North Carolina accent.

But when Mattie meets her next-door neighbor and classmate, she begins to think maybe she used to be silly to fear being the “new girl.” Agnes is like no one Mattie has ever met—she’s curious, hilarious, smart, and makes up the most efficient games. If winter break is anything to go by, the remainder of the school year will have to be a breeze.

Only it isn’t, because when vacation ends and school starts, Mattie realizes something: At school Agnes is referred to as the weird girl who no one likes. All Mattie wants is to slot in (okay, and maybe be a little popular too), but is that worth ending her friendship with Agnes?
