Shark GirlMP3 CD, 8 September 2015

On a sunny day at the beach with her mom and brother, fifteen-year-old Jane Arrowood went for a swim. And then everything--absolutely everything--changed. Now she's counting down the days until she returns to school with her fake arm and kids will whisper, "That's her. That's Shark Girl," when she passes. But right now there are only questions. Why did this happen? Why her? What about her art? What about her life?

"Will entice readers; the drama of the shark attack will hook them, and Jane's inner journey will hold them till the end." --School Library Journal (starred review)
