"Suggestions are split into easy-to-digest chunks and include sections on ADHD and the classroom, parents, medication and colleagues. This book would be a useful and informative guide for anyone working with children with ADHD." - Child Education, July 2008 "Both authors have worked in this area for many years and are well qualified... Through this book the reader will gain a thorough understanding of the concept, gender differences, learning styles and classroom strategies... the joy of these books [in the series] lies in the fact that you can pick them up, glance at an idea and instantly put it into practice" Nasen Special, November 2008 "It provides new ideas and information on how to develop a better understanding of ADHD. Its a book for dipping into and using for reference rather than reading from cover to cover." Learning Support, Summer Term 1 2008
