Book Description

About the Book

A.D.D. in Poetry, One Family’s Journey with Attention Deficit Disorder, is a collection of uplifting and meaningful poetry paired with delightful color illustrations, that will warm the hearts of its readers and will remind them that there is life after the ADD/ADHD diagnosis.

This book is written in a simple, down-to-earth language and offers insight to an ADD/ADHD child’s mind. Each poem expresses thoughts and feelings on how one can live and enjoy today and will inspire one to never give up hope for a better tomorrow. This book can be a wonderful gift to a loved one and/or caregiver experiencing ADD/ADHD first hand.

I am not a doctor, but having to care for four ADD children and share a relationship with an ADD husband, I feel I may have practical experiences to share with others. My children have shared their experiences and have given their stamps of approval on each poem. It is a reflection of how they feel about themselves. I also hope to leave the reader a sense that they are not alone in their daily journey with Attention Deficit Disorder.


Editorial Reviews

Review

"If you feel uncomfortable, frustrated, confused about ADD in yourself or a family member, this book offers a healing perspective." -- Florida Today, December 29th, 2004

From the Author

As I distributed my computer-printed samples to many families experiencing ADD/ADHD first hand to get feed-back, I was given such a positive response from both the children and their caregivers. Each time I saw a child’s eyes light up knowing they are not the only child with ADD, it would add fuel to my fire. If it helps your family, caregivers, teachers, etc. to understand that an ADD/ADHD child (or adult for that matter) sees their world through different eyes and life is just as wonderful and bright as a non-ADD/ADHD person sees it, it will have been worth all the time, money and worry to get this book to print. Thank you and happy reading!

With acceptance comes enjoyment of your ADD/ADHD child. Always remember that you are not alone.

5.0 out of 5 stars This one is great!, February 3, 2005
A Kid's Review
This review is from: A.D.D. in Poetry: One Family's Journey with Attention Deficit Disorder (Paperback)
I am glad an ADD family wrote this. With kids from the family who are ADD, they can tell their parents exactly how it feels to be ADD. I can relate to this book. I am 11 & I have a hard time reading books written by doctors. I have a hard time reading any books. Especially if it is long. This one is great!

I like the poems "Wiggle" and "Sitting Still is Hard", because they are totally me. I just really like the poems in it. That is what I am. I am glad it is not a bad thing!!!!! I am ADD and it is okay.

A Kid's Review
This review is from: A.D.D. in Poetry: One Family's Journey with Attention Deficit Disorder (Paperback)
This is the first book that is written like someone understands me. It is easy to read, instead of lots of negative stuff. It is a great bedtime book with the colorful pictures! It helps my mom too. We got one for my teacher at school to help her too. Thank you.
