 Rating:  - High expectations, low satisfaction.I have to admit I was disappointed in this book. I ordered it because I knew the author, Harvey C. Parker was involved in CHADD, a support group for parents of children with ADD. This book does a good job covering the basics, but if you are already an educated parent about ADD and strategies, it offers nothing new or advanced.

Rating:  - My son's pediatrician said this book will help me a lot!This book provides simple strategies to help parents understand and manage a child with ADD/ADHD. The practical suggestions about behavior management are clear and simple. There are charts and scales to evaluate how your child is doing on medication and suggestions for teachers to help in the classroom. Best of all my likes the charts and stickers supplied with the book.
