Addie and friends all have ADHD, but it presents differently for each one.

In addition to helping kids harness their special strengths, the story addresses self-esteem, mindfulness and other building blocks of mental and emotional wellbeing through relatable scenarios. ADHD isn't easy, but learning to embrace it can have incredible results.

From inattention to impulsivity, this book demonstrates how becoming more aware of our symptoms allows us to develop our coping skills and strategies for success.
Using positivity to support self esteem When ADHD feels like a setback, self-esteem can suffer. But by focusing on the positive traits linked to ADHD—intelligence, creativity, enthusiasm and outside-the-box thinking—kids can learn to harness their strengths, build resilience and achieve their potential.
