Acerca de esta escucha
From the author of the critically acclaimed Braced comes a story of a girl caught between her love of chess and her ADHD.
Clea can’t control her thoughts. She knows she has to do her homework...but she gets distracted. She knows she can’t just say whatever thought comes into her head...but sometimes she can’t help herself. She know she needs to focus...but how can she do that when the people around her are always chewing gum loudly or making other annoying noises?
It’s starting to be a problem - not just in school, but when Clea’s playing chess or just hanging out with her best friend. Other kids are starting to notice. When Clea fails one too many tests, her parents take her to be tested, and she finds out that she has ADHD, which means her attention is all over the place instead of where it needs to be.
Clea knows life can’t continue the way it’s been going. She’s just not sure how you can fix a problem that’s all in your head. But to find a way to focus, that’s what she’s going to have to do.
In a starred review, Booklist called Alyson Gerber’s first novel, Braced, “a masterfully constructed and highly empathetic debut about a different kind of acceptance”. With Focused, she explores even further how, when life gives you a challenge, the best way to face it is with an open mind, an open heart, and the open support of the people around you.

Historia
When scientists discover a rare and mysterious mineral buried in the Earth’s crust, they have no idea that it just happens to be the most valuable substance in the entire universe. It’s not long before aliens show up to our little corner of the galaxy offering a promise of protection, some fabulous new technology, and entry into their intergalactic coalition - all in exchange for this precious resource. A material so precious that other alien forces are willing to start a war over it. A war that soon makes its way to Earth.

Rachel Brooks is excited for the new school year. She's finally earned a place as a forward on her soccer team. Her best friends make everything fun. And she really likes Tate, and she's pretty sure he likes her back. After one last appointment with her scoliosis doctor, this will be her best year yet. Then the doctor delivers some terrible news: The sideways curve in Rachel's spine has gotten worse, and she needs to wear a back brace 23 hours a day.

Not that her mom seems to appreciate it. At least there's Lenny, her mom's boyfriend - they all get to live in his nice, clean trailer. At school, Zoey tries to stay under the radar. Her only friend, Fuchsia, has her own issues, and since they're in an entirely different world than the rich kids, it's best if no one notices them.

The Vanderbeekers have always lived in the brownstone on 141st Street. It's practically another member of the family. So when their reclusive, curmudgeonly landlord decides not to renew their lease, the five siblings have 11 days to do whatever it takes to stay in their beloved home and convince the dreaded Beiderman just how wonderful they are. And all is fair in love and war when it comes to keeping their home. A modern classic in the making reminiscent of the Penderwicks series.

Burke was a gay baseball player in the 1970s―and for Silas, the presentation is his own first baby step toward revealing a truth about himself he’s tired of hiding. Soon he tells his best friend, Zoey, but the longer he keeps his secret from his baseball teammates, the more he suspects they know something’s up―especially when he stages one big cover-up with terrible consequences.

Historia
Albie has never been the smartest kid in his class. He has never been the tallest. Or the best at gym. Or the greatest artist. Or the most musical. In fact, Albie has a long list of the things he's not very good at. And his parents keep reminding him of those things all the time...even when it's just by accident. But then Albie gets a new babysitter, Calista, who helps him figure out all of the things he is good at and how he can take pride in himself.

When Tessa is accepted into the creative writing program of a prestigious art school, she’s excited to finally let her stories shine. But when she goes to her first workshop, the words are just...gone. Caroline has a solution: Tessa needs to find some inspiration in a real-life love story of her own.

Kevin has a big talent. Some might call it compulsive lying. He calls it common sense. Kev doesn’t mean to cause trouble by lying all the time; he’s just trying to make everything easier for everyone (and himself). And, of course, a few harmless, um, falsehoods are crucial to his plan to convince Tina that he’s the perfect boyfriend for her. In Gary Paulsen’s irresistible and chaotic comedy, Kevin’s lies spiral out of control until he’s faced with the need to do the unthinkable: tell the truth.

When Ari's mother died four years ago, she had two final wishes: that Ari and her older brother, Gage, would stay together always, and that Ari would go to Carter, the middle school for gifted students. So when eighteen-year-old Gage decided he could no longer live with their bossy guardian, Janna, Ari knew she had to go with him - even though she'd miss baking cookies with Janna and curling up to watch HGTV. What Ari didn't realize was that Gage didn't have an apartment yet.

This book is awesome!
I got diagnosed with ADHD when I was 12 (im 13 now) but I was too scared to speak up to the teachers and ask for the help I needed. This upcoming 8th grade year, I am going to do everything I can to succeed thanks to Focused by Allison Gerber.

Late ADHD Diagnosis
This book was wonderful, I found it very relatable. I grew up without the diagnoses of ADHD and went through many of the struggles that were described. I have never felt so understood and it was very healing to see that other people think so similarly to me. Most of my life I have felt very misunderstood and I had no idea so much of it was caused by ADHD. I really think family members of people who have ADHD should read this book.

Good but…ROMANCE?!
I was loving these book but romance! 🤢 She is 12 years old girl you have your whole life ahead of you plenty of time for that stuff. But otherwise the book was amazing! It seemed to be real her family her ADHD or formally as ADD. So yeah her story is great. But why does every story about a girl over 10 have to have romance😟( mines Jennifer Nielsen and Lauren Traries. Thank you guys )

Great Story and Narration
Focused is a book that tells a story of Clea Adams, a middle schooler who has problems with ADHD. Chess is her favorite thing at school. She has to take ADHD test that makes her miss two days at school and chess. She is worried because Mr. Lee, who is the teacher of chess, hates it when people are absent from practice and when they are late. Mr. Lee is the person who will select 12 people to play in chess tournaments and help the team win the championship. Clea really wants to be the top 12 at chess and does not like that she has to be at the test for ADHD, when she will be missing chess. Clea has a best friend named Red. His dad moved away with his girlfriend Barb, AKA Barf. Red is really sad and wants everything to be better. Hanley, Clea's small sister, believes that Clea is great at chess and going to win the tournament. With the help of Dr. Gold and Ms. Curtis, her friends and family, and her hard work, Clea has achieved her dreams.
Focused is a great book with a great idea. It is awesome for people who have ADHD. Mr. Lee is a great teacher and my favorite character. Great book for people who have troubles at school. Focused has got sad parts and funny parts. I give this book an A. Great characters and a great story of love, bullying, hope, and friendships.
Cassandra Morris did really well at narrating the story. She is my favorite narrator.
