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 amp;mdash; 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 waterboy. He spends football practice perfectly arranging water cups amp;mdash; and hoping no one notices. Actually, he spends most of his time hoping no one notices his strange habits amp;mdash; 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 amp;mdash; 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.
