Book Description:
Cory has lots of stories to tell—and lots of ways to get organized, pay attention, calm down, remember things, make friends, and feel good about himself and life with ADHD. In short statements and vignettes, Cory describes what it’s like to have ADHD: how it affects his relationships with friends and family, his school performance, and his overall functioning. He also describes many ways of coping with ADHD: medication, therapy/counseling, and practical tips for school, home, and friendships. Includes a Note to Parents.
