And how his church-deacon dad accidentally gave a squirrel a holy sacrament. And how his undertaker mom occasionally has to wrangle emus.But the story Simon doesn’t tell is the one he’d do anything to forget: Simon is the only survivor of a school shooting. That story has followed him everywhere — everywhere except his new home in the National Quiet Zone, where the internet is banned so radio astronomers can listen for signs of life in space.Then Simon meets a kid who wants to give the astronomers what they’ve been looking for . . . and he finally gets the chance to tell a new story about himself.This is that story.Hilarious, heart-wrenching and ultimately hopeful, this story is about finding your friends, healing your heart and speaking your truth.\u003cdiv style=\"display:none;\"\u003eErin Bow \u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Scholastic Canada Ltd","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":53402014220561,"sku":"9781039708778","price":12.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true},{"title":"EPUB [reflow]","offer_id":53402014253329,"sku":"9781443193146","price":21.99,"currency_code":"CAD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0867\/9676\/3409\/files\/9781039708778.jpg?v=1776108759","url":"https:\/\/bookcentre.ca\/products\/simon-sort-of-says","provider":"The Canadian Children's Book Centre","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
