Reviews / Votes
The world of ADHD has been waiting for this book with bated breath for many years. If there's a fairy godmother of our lot, it's Jessica McCabe. She has a fool proof way of instilling hope, an uncanny intuition, and a preternatural understanding of the condition so misleadingly called ADHD. She turns pain into the wisdom and hard-earned joy you'll find in this bountiful gift to us all. If you or someone you love has ADHD and feels ready to give up, give them a copy of this book. Tell them Jessica has been there and then some. Tell them that if they follow the bread crumbs there, this book will lead them to where they're meant to go. -- Dr Edward Hallowell, co-author of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0 * Dr Edward Hallowell, co-author of Driven to Distraction and ADHD 2.0 *More details
