What People Say About the Book

I love Fidget to Focus. I want to congratulate you on this wonderful and unique contribution to the field. Your book was very informative about how the ADD brain works and current understanding about the disorder, as well as the numerous practical, helpful sensory strategies for self-regulation that you shared.

Advocating repetitive sensory-motor activities as a fundamental strategy for improving attention and other cognitive abilities, they present a unique and fun way to turn outer chaos to calm focus.
