Our 9 year old son has been recently identified as a child with ADD and mild hyperactivity. We have been discussing techniques with a therapist on how to stay on task, but after reading this book with our son, we found out that he feels like more of an outcast than we realized. He was excited to know that someone else feels the way he does, that the rest of the family has some of those same thoughts and feelings too and it made all of us laugh about it.

A wonderful book that helps children and even adults understand what it feels like to have ADHD. I think it really helped by 6 year old son understand that he is not alone in how he feels with this disorder. For the past two years we didn't know what was wrong with him, we thought that maybe he was just really hyper. When his teachers told us that his behavior was so bad at school they were thinking of putting him in a special class, we knew we had to do something. He was diagnosed with ADHD and is now in therapy and takes medication. We have noticed a huge difference. It feels good to know that we are not the only ones going through this, and that he is not a bad kid, he is just different. This book really helped to get that point across. I bought a few copies for his grandparents and teachers. A great recommendation for parents looking to explain their child's ADHD to them.
