TESTIMIONALS
"An excellent and practical workbook developed out of years of experience and caring. I highly recommend this workbook."
EDWARD HALLOWELL, M.D.
AUTHOR OF DRIVEN TO DISTRACTION & ANSWERS TO DISTRACTION

"Finally, a book FOR the kids! One that they can really use to boost their self-esteem, along with good information for their parents to help them understand also. It is just like having your own portable support group -- take it with you, and read and write when you feel as though [you] need an ego boost. An easy-to-read book for everyone: parents, teachers, students -- it goes a long way in advocating understanding of ADHD -- what it is, and what it is NOT!!!!"
THERESA C. CAVANAUGH, LDT-C
PRESIDENT, LEARNING DISABILITIES ASSOCIATION OF NEW JERSEY
