Customer Reviews

Easy to read, invaluable help

This is the perfect book for counselors and other mental health professionals who want up to date information about ADD/ADHD. The way the book is written makes it an excellent referrence for parents and families who are living with a child, or children with ADHD. Parents and teachers can simply turn to the chapter or chapters that deal with pertinent information for their situation. Despite this format, the book is no less cohesive or interesting to read cover-to-cover. I recommend this book without reservation.

Great Resource for parents!

I loved the easy-to-read format and the breadth and depth of the information. A definite go-to handbook for parents of ADD children who are trying to get appropriate services for thier children. Loaded with insights and humor that help me understand and communicate effectively with my son AND his teachers. and my husband and the grandparents....highly recommended.

A Must Read for Teachers

I am a special education teacher with many ADHD students. I found this book very helpful in the classroom setting. I also have a parent group for their ADHD children and this was our text used in the group. It is easy to read for parents and teachers.

Finally A User Friendly and Practical Guide to ADHD

Practical advice for Parents and Teachers. Excellent ideas,fresh new approaches, and hope for exhausted Parents. I would strongly suggest that anyone who deals with an ADHD child read and keep this book as a handy desktop reference.

Easy to Read

As a parent of an ADHD child I found this book to be very easy to read. It has a lot of suggestions that I use with my child at home. I especially like the Review and Tip section which let me look of suggestions quick and easy. This book was able to answer most of my questions that I struggle with including "What should I do if?" when raising my child.
