Customer Reviews: Read 6 more reviews... Not a winner in our home December 26, 2008 I didn't really care for this book, nor did my son. Neither of us was really impressed with it and it didn't give us any ideas to try to help with distraction. Fabulous December 1, 2008 My 11 year old son, who never reads on his own, actually spent 20 minutes reading this book when it arrived. Need I say more? GREAT! July 30, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful This book covers everything a parent would want to talk and teach a child with AD/HD. It covers even meds., coping skills, ect.. at a child's level. My son loves it! It makes him feel normal. Best book for kids on ADHD/ ADD June 15, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful Fantastic book for kids with ADHD/ ADD. It has really helped in our household and I cannot recommend it highly enough. It is easy enough for kids to read and has loads of great chapters - Eating right, Ways to succeed at school, How to make and keep friends etc etc. It talks about ADHD in a non-confronting way and has been an enormous help. My daughter carries it with her and quotes from it all the time. She has become a little more settled since reading this book and I think she is starting to understand a bit more about why she behaves the way she does. Delightful and helpful March 10, 2008 5 out of 5 found this review helpful I have an interest in all information and ways of informing people about ADHD and The Survival Guide for kids with ADD or ADHD, is not only informative, it is also practical and fun. I support any author who suggests positive ways for parents to interact with their children with or without ADHD. This is a must have for any parent of a child with ADHD.
