Description
There is no other text that can inform, educate and involve so effectively about the needs of ADHD children in mainstream classrooms. I would recommend that it is included on reading lists for trainee teachers, and is promoted by Special Needs Co-ordinators in schools. - "Jane Spencer, De Montfort University " A remarkable story told with honesty, candour and real strength. It is powerful' - "Rt. Revd. Christopher Herbert, Bishop of St Albans " A fascinating and thought-provoking book written by the mother of an eleven year-old with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). This book is cleverly constructed and looks at ADHD from many perspectives. It follows a 22-hour expedition, but it is also a journey of discovery for Anna's family about how to best help their son. Peppered with humour, irony, laughter, pain, outrage, discussion and reflection, this book shows a way through the maze of ADHD, and provides a reader-friendly but challenging read.
