Grade 4-8-In both of these volumes, Gold concentrates on individuals who suffer from the above disorders. This approach serves to personalize the illnesses, but it also narrows the focus slightly. In Attention Deficit Disorder, the author follows a young boy from childhood to college, and gives examples of how his ADD led to problems in school, difficulties at home, and even injuries due to his impulsiveness. In Bipolar Disorder, several young people are profiled and examples are given of how their manic energy and episodes of despair have affected their lives. Both books include information on the causes and various types of the disorders, plus treatment options and reassurances that neither condition is related to intelligence. The formats are open and will attract reluctant readers. Full-color photos illustrate the texts.
