Focused
Gerber, Alyson
Genre:
Twelve-year-old Clea wants to do her homework
follow instructions
pay attention in school
and play chess on the school team
but somehow she cannot focus on whatever is in front of her
and the other kids at school are starting to notice and make fun of her; when her worried parents take her to be tested she finds out that she has ADHD (only without the hyperactivity)--and with help from the psychiatrist who seems to really understand her she is determined to learn how to focus.
