Q

“Dell realized that his somewhat hairy hands were
both trembling. He had never met a kid like this. . . Dell
dug out Dickie Winkleman’s three areas of evaluation:
Activity, Patience, Attention. Willow had the ability to pay
attention. She appeared to exhibit patience (she had
listened to him drone on for the first half of the
appointment). But he could not rate her activity level. In
truth, Dell knew that the twelve-year-old with large eyes
(who had told him to have his blood pressure checked just
before she left) was anything but normal” (38).
