On a sunny day in June, 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, where she knows kids will whisper, "That s her - that s Shark Girl," as she passes. Meanwhile there are only questions: Why did this happen? What about her art? What about her life? This striking first novel uses poems, letters, telephone conversations, and newspaper clippings to look unflinchingly at what it s like to lose part of yourself and to summon the courage it takes to find yourself again.
