Wonderful book for children to learn about their ADD/ADHD, Aug 11 2009
By monkeyness - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Putting on the Brakes: Understanding & Taking Control of Your ADD or ADHD (Paperback)
I highly recommend this book for children with ADD/ADHD. It is well written and engaging for the young reader. It is a positive book and does not put down the child. The book includes great exercises and activities for the child to complete after each section so they get to really think about what they read and how it applies to them personally. Great book.

A thoroughly 'kid friendly' compendium of practical ideas, activities, and insights, Dec 14 2008
By Midwest Book Review - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Putting on the Brakes: Understanding & Taking Control of Your ADD or ADHD (Paperback)
Attention Deficient Disorder or ADD is an increasingly prevalent condition amongst America's children. Now in a newly revised second edition, "Putting On The Brakes: Understanding And Taking Control Of Your ADD or ADHD" is the collaborative effort of developmental pediatrician and ADD treatment specialist Patricia Q. Quinn (Clinical Assistant Professor of Pediatrics, Georgetown University Medical Center) and educational consultant Judith M. Stern. This thoroughly 'kid friendly' compendium of practical ideas, activities, and insights is specifically designed to help children to manage their attention disorders, make friends, control emotions, and improve their general health. Also available in a hardcover edition, "Putting On The Brakes" is very highly recommended reading and ideal for children ages 8 to 13 (and their parents) having to deal with ADD and ADHD in their daily lives at home and at school.

A Book For Kids, Rather Than Parents, Mar 4 2011
By Dr. Emily Kensington - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Putting on the Brakes: Understanding & Taking Control of Your ADD or ADHD (Paperback)
This book is refreshing and different. The intended audience of most childhood ADHD books is the parents/caregivers of children with ADHD, but this one focuses on children. Deficits in social skills are one of the biggest challenges facing children who suffer from ADHD, and this books helps ameliorate those deficits by offering tips for improving social interactions. No less important, the author is also a giant in the field ADHD treatment, which makes this work highly recommended.
