 mother of child with ADHD Jun 01, 2010
This book was very informative and easy to understand. It did not use medical term which are often confusing. My son likes to sit down and read about his condiditon and it made him understand he wasn't doing anything wrong and he is smart even though school is harder for him. I would very much recommend this book.
great therapist tool Apr 14, 2010
I am a therapist for children & adolescents. I was looking for a book that would appeal to a large range of ages & this book was it. My patients have told me that they now understand what ADHD is and feel better about themselves. The parents that have read this book said that they never realized exactly what ADHD meant for their child & it opened up their understanding as well. It was easy reading and a fun book for all.

 A useful resource for counseling children with ADHD Oct 28, 2009
We use this book with children and parents at our child and family counseling clinic.
There is a lot of information packed into this small book, more than most children can easily make use of. However, it has some very useful parts and overall can be a good guide to help a child and adult work together and find ways to manage ADHD-related difficulties.
The most appealing part for children is Part 1, "A Checklist About Me." It lists sixty-six behaviors, issues and feelings relevant to children with ADHD. By going over the list with the child, the counselor (or parent) can get a sense of how the child perceives the ADHD-related difficulties. This information can be helpful in mapping out a treatment plan.
Part 3, "Things I can do to Help Myself," can also help in treatment planning. There are more than a dozen sections and each section describes one problem (completing tasks, managing homework, etc) and then lists helpful interventions. This is more information than most kids can digest, but it is useful reading for parents: it can give the parent some food for thought and be a help in selecting priorities for a treatment plan.
Part 4 addresses the parent-child relationship: it explains to the child and parent how to work together to make changes. It's good, basic information and is followed by an excellent "Note to Parents."
Overall, this small volume would be a worthwhile addition to any counselor or therapist's ADHD library.

Slow down :) Sep 12, 2009
I got this book for my son who is 12 to hopefully get some ideas on how to help himself slow down. In his words he liked the book and it gave him some creative ideas to help himself. Ultimately we got exactly what we wanted for the book. My son is helping me review it and wanted to give it 4 stars b/c he felt there could've been some more practice activities in it. The reading level is low to mid-range but easy enough as a parent to go over with your children, easy for kids to comprehend, and interesting enough to hold my older child's attention and get him to want to try to apply some of the concepts.
