Why read it?

1 author picked Princess Jellyfish 1 as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

This series turns the “tortured outcast” trope on its head: these nerd characters are proud to be outcasts, and the one thing they don't want to be associated with is beautiful, popular people! I love this story because I, too, once fell into the “us vs. them” mentality against people I thought were too cool for me as a youth— people who could have potentially become my best friends! This manga series beautifully celebrates how we are all different, but still might have more in common than we think.

From Hannah's list on for kids who feel like outcasts.
