Very informative book, August

Reviewer: Anne (CA)
Once I started to read the book, I couldn't put
it down! I kept underlying so much on every page
( one of the strategies I use to stay focused )
and found many insights.
The book reads easily and flows well with
stories I can relate to, clear information and
understanding of ADD, and best of all, many
strategies for living with ADD including an
extensive workbook section that has been very
helpful. Also the review and the end of the
chapters is great to go back to. Highly
educational and useful, I absolutely recommend
this book!
Finally, A Book That Makes
Sense For Those With ADD, June 29, 2005
Reviewer: Lee Silber (San Diego, CA)
There are several super books on the subject of
Attention Deficit Disorder and each has sections
that stand out. However, "Fidget To Focus" is
the one book that has it all. It explains the
reasons why people with ADD do the things they
do AND offers excellent suggestions and
solutions, too. What I like best about the book
is that it isn't trying to change anyone but
instead encourages readers to use their unique
(and natural) tendencies to their advantage.
Finally, the workbook in the back is an
excellent resource for people who are really
serious about finding ways to make the most of
their ADD.
Thanks for your book! As
a veteran educator who worked with
adolescents with ADHD for more than two decades,
I felt validated
by your explanation of these students need to
fidget to focus.

"The first idea that the child must acquire, in
order to be actively
disciplined, is that of the difference between
good and evil; and the
task of the educator lies in seeing that the
child does not confound
good with immobility, and evil with activity. "
~ Maria Montessori
