1st printing. Story and art by Pina Varnel. Candid, comforting, and practical, this graphic novel is an endearing portrayal of the ups and downs of living with ADHD. Kiki has always felt different from other people: She loses track of time, she daydreams when she should be paying attention, she questions all the rules and shows her emotions more strongly than her friends. But through trial and error (and error and error), she discovers her own ways to succeed and to connect with her loved ones. And eventually, she discovers a truth that makes all the difference—that she has been living with undiagnosed ADHD. Now, Kiki can get real help in managing her disorder and a new understanding of why she has been feeling more like an alien than a typical high school student. Through disarmingly honest fictional anecdotes and enlightening interludes that explain the specifics of ADHD, Pina Varnel shares her own life experiences and hard-won knowledge. Softcover, 5 1/2-in. x 8-in., 336 pages, full color. Age 10 and up Cover price $17.99.
