Parents of children with attention and behavioral disorders will find Wild Child an excellent guide to helping a child, from building an understanding of such disorders to handling problems with family members and helping kids take control of their lives. Checklists, charts and keys to understanding make for an excellent self-help guide.

I was extremely excited when a teacher collegue of mine introduced me to this book. I have had many ADD and ADHD children in my class and have always struggled with them. I read this book with much enthusiasm looking for help all the way. I realized that my behavior towards these children was hindering them from growing, I have learned I need to be a better communicator with the parents and child about my expectation and set up a program that will help the child to meet our goals. Most importantly I have learned I need to be CALM with these children and model the behavior I expect from them. I have learned so much from this book. I look forward to trying these techniques in my classroom next year.

I've poured over the books about ADD and ADHD. It's such a hard thing to go through. This one was good enough I wanted a copy for myself. Highly recommended!
