Dr John F Taylor
Psychologist, Dr Taylor does a great job explaining ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) thoroughly but simply.
He obviously knows his audience because the book is ideal for readers with a short concentration span. Although, it is aimed at children aged 8 to 12, it will be a good source of information for their parents.
Topics covered include the different types of ADHD, medicine, sleep, resources, diet as well as tips for living amicably with your family, succeeding at school, making and keeping friends and ways to deal with strong feelings.
Each page is well laid out with a mixture of blue and black text and easy-to-see headings.
There are cartoons, important points in thought bubbles, humorous quizzes, key words are in bold and explained in the glossary at the back.
