A firsthand account of one young man’s battle with ADHD and some wonderful insights into what a reader with ADHD could do to overcome the brain’s inability to stay focused. Think of this as a manual to cope for someone with ADHD. The chapters are arranged well and set up so that the reader can reference particular issues and see helpful solutions and “cause and effect” or summaries of what the author has learned from all of his own experiences. A great read for anyone wanting to understand more about the disorder. sem resenhas | adicionar uma resenha
Blake Taylor's mother first suspected he had ADHD when he, at only three years of age, tried to push his infant sister in her carrier off the kitchen table. As time went by, Blake developed a reputation for being hyperactive and impulsive. He launched rockets (accidentally) into neighbor's swimming pools and set off alarms in museums. Blake was diagnosed formally with ADHD when he was five years old. InADHD and Me, he tells about the next twelve years as he learns to live with both the good and bad sides of life with ADHD. Blake's memoir offers, for the first time, a young person's account of what it's like to live and grow up with this common condition. Join Blake as he foils bullies, confronts unfair teachers, struggles with distraction and disorganization on exams, and goes sailing out-of-bounds and ends up with a boatload of spiders. It will be an inspiration and companion to the thousands of others like him who must find a way to thrive with a different perspective than many of us. The book features an introduction by psychologist Lara Honos-Webb, author of The Gift of ADHD, and a leading advocate for kids with ADHD. Não foram encontradas descrições de bibliotecas. |
