Yes, pure and simple.
I have multiple children with ADHD and I wish I had had this book for each of them when they were younger. I purchased this after checking MANY books and reading ENDLESS reviews, for my 11 year old daughter.This book will be easy for her to use, with a little help due to dyslexia, and I believe she will benefit from it in place of therapy as we wait to get some extra help for her.This book covers a lot of areas such as self discovery with ones own ADHD, recognizing emotions and how to work with them vs letting them control you, action and reaction, bedtime rituals, making realistic plans/goals and so on.Yes, get this book.

Kids immediately excited to look through
Left this on the couch after opening the package, came back to the book being flipped through and flagged for ideas to try right away.Written in a way that interests kids and preteens, making them excited to try the strategies and techniques - which let's be honest makes all the difference between possible success and no chance.

This book is amazing!
As a homeschooler, I wanted to check this out for some ideas. Immediately I was sucked in by the graph paper drawing breaks. I think I shouted at my fiancé.The lessons are great, self importance, self love, understanding of self and others. She speaks directly to the child completing the activities also which is refreshing. It’s a perfect touch for teaching a child about how their mind works.Love the book. Recommend the book.

This is not only a helpful workbook for kids with ADHD, its a great communication and bonding tool
I absolutely love this workbook. My 10 year old suffers from ADHD, and unfortunately I do as well so it is harder for me to read through ADHD books for adults to figure out how I can help him.The book starts with an explanation of what ADHD is and what it means, all written in a language that kids really understand. It is a very positive explanation of ADHD so kids don't feel like they are dumb or there is something bad about this.It also goes into the types of ADHD with some characteristics of each type and a cute nickname for each type. I had fun talking through them with my son- I compared it to the different houses of Harry Potter- which house is he in?We then started into the activities which included a checklist of ADHD attributes. It got my son to really open up to me and talk through some of the difficulties that he goes through and also feel like he is not alone in this. Some of the difficulties he was having made him feel like a failure. Now he knows that millions of kids have this and that there is a light at the end of the tunnel!Normally, my conversations with my 10 year old are just about how his day was and we cover really surface level topics. This book has enabled me to dig down deeper with my child to have more meaningful conversations and bond with him.I highly recommend this book, in fact I can't recommend it enough. If you have a child with ADHD, buy this book!

Amazing book to work with your adhd child
My child has been angry and frustrated that she is so different from everyone else. I got this workbook and we sat and worked through it together and it completely changed her perspective about her adhd and helped her realize that the it comes with struggles but also it is what gives her so many strengths. I highly recommend this book for any kid with adhd. It was a great bonding / quality time experience to go through the workbook together but it is easy enough for her to do in her own also. She is 8. For children younger than 8 you would probably want to work through it with them but it would still be very helpful.

Not for an 11 Year Old
First, I must say I do like this book. However, my son thought it was too "kidish". I could see this working with 6-9 years old. Maybe 10, but no age past that unless they are delayed. It did have a great kid explanation for what ADHD is and how that makes you different but not in a bad way. It has SHORT quizes and such to assess your type of ADHD, what symptoms you have, activities to build self-esteem in the child, tips for learning how to do well in school and other areas of life. For a younger child, I would highly recommend this book.
