It's engaging, well written, with actual humor. Characters are well developed and their behavior is true to life even when their actions are ugly. I was pleased to see a transition from female to male to augment the more common male to female plot. The roles of the parents are particularly well portrayed. They need time to cope with losing a daughter and gaining a son, and their behavior during this time is described realistically. Naturally everyone's experience is different, but at least this story isn't completely told through rose glasses. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,171,184 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #107 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Peer Pressure #677 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction about Emotions & Feelings #811 in Teen & Young Adult Fiction on Dating & Sex (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.5 4.5 out of 5 stars (167) | | Dimensions | 5.5 x 0.8 x 8.25 inches | | Edition | Reissue | | Grade level | 7 - 9 | | ISBN-10 | 1481468103 | | ISBN-13 | 978-1481468107 | | Item Weight | 8.8 ounces | | Language | English | | Print length | 304 pages | | Publication date | October 6, 2015 | | Publisher | Simon & Schuster Books for Young Readers | | Reading age | 12 years and up | ## Images ![Parrotfish - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71Zzgdz3NuL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Nice book *by C***M on May 18, 2025* Good read ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Realistic trials of a new boy *by B***R on April 29, 2015* This is overall an excellent read. It's engaging, well written, with actual humor. Characters are well developed and their behavior is true to life even when their actions are ugly. I was pleased to see a transition from female to male to augment the more common male to female plot. The roles of the parents are particularly well portrayed.

Naturally everyone's experience is different, but at least this story isn't completely told through rose glasses. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Thoughtful and Sweet *by B***Y on May 18, 2017* This was an incredible little book. My only gripe with it, at all, was that sometimes the pacing was a bit sluggish, and too many details were crammed into scenes that seemed ancillary to the plot. But Grady, he's amazing. From the very beginning, you can sense that Grady is a brave soul. He has decided, in high school, to transition to male and defy what his principals (and several teachers), classmates, siblings, and family think about the situation. He puts himself through mental and physical agony, so he can be mentally at peace, and it is an incredible look into the brutal battle that transgender individuals are forced to face, whether they like it or not. Some stars of the show are Kita (the crush), Sebastian (who may be the cutest character I have ever read on the planet...seriously...I want him to be real so we can hang out/I can adopt him), and the PE teacher who goes to bat for Grady in a HUGE way. The end is beautifully written including an obvious message to the reader, "Sometimes it's hard to remember that by tomorrow or next week or at least next year, the stuff that seems so awful today might actually be funny. That what makes you miserable today will alter on in life be a good story to tell your friends. Why does that happen? I don't know. Things change. People change. We spend a long time trying to figure out how to act like ourselves, and then, if we're lucky, we finally figure out that being ourselves has nothing to do with acting" (287). --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/18918797-parrotfish](https://www.desertcart.com.sa/products/18918797-parrotfish) --- *Product available on Desertcart Saudi Arabia* *Store origin: SA* *Last updated: 2026-04-28*
