OCDaniel
Summary
From the author of Incredible Space Raiders from Space! comes a coming-of-age story about a boy whose life revolves around hiding his obsessive compulsive disorder - until he gets a mysterious note that changes everything. Daniel is the backup punter for the Erie Hills Elephants, which really means he's the water boy. He spends football practice perfectly arranging water cups - and hoping no one notices. Actually, he spends most of his time hoping no one notices his strange habits - he calls them Zaps: avoiding writing the number four, for example, or flipping a light switch on and off dozens of times over. He hopes no one notices he's crazy, especially his best friend, Max, and Raya, the prettiest girl in school. His life gets weirder when another girl at school, who is unkindly nicknamed Psycho Sara, notices him for the first time. She doesn't just notice him: She seems to peer through him. Then Daniel gets a note: "I need your help", it says, signed, Fellow Star Child - whatever that means. Suddenly, Daniel, a total no one at school, is swept up in a mystery that might change everything for him. With great voice and grand adventure, this audiobook is about feeling different and finding those who understand.

Daniel Is Different
Summary
Daniel ist ein stinknormaler Teenager. Nicht besonders gut im Football, nicht besonders beliebt, aber normal. Bis auf seine Ticks, die ihn zwingen, stundenlang das Licht an und auszuschalten, bestimmte Zahlen zu meiden und die ihn den Schlaf und fast das ganze Selbstbewusstsein kosten. Ist er verrückt? Das darf niemand wissen! Außerdem ist er verliebt, und Mädchen stehen wohl kaum auf Verrückte. Da spricht ihn auf einmal die irre Sara an, das Mädchen aus seiner Schule, das eigentlich nicht redet. Sie weiß mehr über ihn, als er vor sich selbst zugeben möchte...
