Gr 7 Up–This accessible guide offers clear, concise answers to common questions about Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Boslaugh covers a broad range of topics, including symptoms, treatment options, and strategies for managing ADHD in daily life. The writing is a great balance of educational and kind, with a comforting tone that will resonate with both young readers and adults seeking to better understand ADHD. Though comprehensive, the book occasionally oversimplifies complex issues, which might limit its usefulness for professionals or those seeking in-depth analysis. The inclusion of expert advice, strategies, and personal anecdotes adds a layer of relatability. Visuals and sidebars would enhance the overall presentation, as the current layout is text heavy. Nevertheless, this is a valuable resource for middle school libraries and parents seeking a better understanding of ADHD.
VERDICT Recommended as a useful addition to school and public libraries serving teens, parents, and educators.
