Do you know a kid struggling with ADHD? The Survival Guide is a book about them, for them. In simple, understandable language, Dr. Taylor provides concrete information and tips on the ADD/HD diagnosis, school, family, friends, emotions and even ideas for a healthy diet. This is an empowering book for young people and is loaded with ideas, resources and some humor. While the book is written for an upper-elementary and middle school reader, the information is helpful for everyone.
