Why be normal when you can soar like a dragon?
This paperback edition of the beloved novel Good Different includes exclusive bonus content!
Selah knows her rules for being normal.
She always, always sticks to them. This means keeping her feelings locked tightly inside, despite the way they build up inside her as each school day goes on, so that she has to run to the bathroom and hide in the stall until she can calm down. So that she has to tear off her normal-person mask the second she gets home from school, and listen to her favorite pop song on repeat, trying to recharge. Selah feels like a dragon stuck in a world of humans, but she knows how to hide it.
Until the day she explodes and hits a fellow student.
Selah's friends pull away from her, her school threatens expulsion, and her comfortable, familiar world starts to crumble.
But as Selah starts to figure out more about who she is, she comes to understand that different doesn't mean damaged. Can she get her school to understand that, too, before it's too late?
This is a moving and unputdownable novel-in-verse about learning to celebrate the things that make us different.
Meg Eden Kuyatt's writing not only sheds vital light on important issues but also challenges misconceptions with wit and compassion, making complex ideas both clear and relatable. Kuyatt's talent for communicating with clarity and humor makes her a trailblazer in the field, and her work has the power to inspire meaningful change. She's not just brilliant--she's like the superhero of neurodiversity advocacy! - Rachel Bloom, actress, comedian, singer, writer and producer.
