A refreshing perspective of ADHD

I wasn’t sure whether I wanted to read this book or not because I was scared that it would be too confronting. The author handles the subject with care and plenty of his own personal anecdotes which put me at ease and made it a great read.

Scattered Minds

I could feel the truth in what was written within my journey raising a child with ADD. Applicable for families with or without the sensitivities of ADD within the family.
