🌟 Recommendation Details

Studies have shown that there is 1 out of 15,300 chances you could possibly be struck by lightning in a lifetime, with that an even less likely chance to survive. For 12-year-old Lucy Callahan, a survivor of a lightning strike, this event had made her a math super-genius, but this superpower can't help her predict what middle school will be like or understand why she needs to go. Her grandmother encourages her to give it a try, make one friend, join one activity, and read one book that's not about math. Stacy McAnulty( Author) shares the beauty and joy of math alongside the illogic of trying to calculate the best path to navigate relationships and life. The Miscalculations of Lightning Girl sets up a fantastic order. With themes of self-discovery and friendship, this is a profoundly relatable story. Julie sums it up well, "This book reminds you that everyone is a little weird, and that's okay."
