Reviews:
“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”
