Summary: Good concept, but inconsistent in its level of difficulty
Comment: This might have been two fairly good books. However the two halves do not fit together well.

The first section consists of simple drawings, each with a breif explanation of a key aspect of ADHD. This seems pitched at a younger child. The second section is mostly words--it has some fairly useful strategies that studen with AD/HD might use to help cope with inattention and impulsive tendencies.

A student old enough to understand the second section might find the first part too childish. A child who liked the pictures in the first part might not have be ble to implement the self-monitoring strategies in the second half.
