Description

Learn to harness, celebrate and love your wonderfully wild ADHD brain!

This aspirational, fun and friendly guide is a brilliant tool to explain how and why ADHD brains behave the way they do.

Exploring all kinds of ADHD traits, from things you might recognise as stereotypical struggles (like a butterfly flitting between different tasks) to wonderful strengths (such as an octopus-like ability to adapt), this book celebrates both the brilliant bits and the more challenging aspects of ADHD. By doing this, you will learn to understand and accept every part of the unique ADHD brain.

From Alice Harman – long-time lover (and some-time wrestler) of her own ADHD brain – this book offers helpful tools, tips and insights, as well as 'Brain Science' pull-outs explaining the neuroscience behind each concept. This is a must-have book for anyone interested in understanding more about these wonderful, wild and one-of-a-kind brains!

This is such a great book for trying to teach children more about ADHD.

It includes some really fun and engaging exercises along with a great premise of comparing ADHD to the strengths of animals.

Overall a great concept for teaching children about ADHD.

Thank you to Netgalley, the author and publisher for an eARC copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.

This book was brilliant, it is a beautiful explanation.

Breaking down the ADHD in to creatures makes the book not only fun to read but also one that helps to explain the traits that so many experience.

As someone highly involved in ADHD-related topics and reads most of the credible books out there, I am very familiar with the lack of supporting resources for children which are age-appropriate and introduce ADHD.

This book stood out with its conversational but also informative, inclusive, reflective, accepting approach and how the information was presented.

I know of children who still struggle with their diagnoses, and this is a book that I will recommend to them, and their families.
