Tomboy Tatiana loves to be outside and moving around.Grumpy Georgia is hypersensitive, not hyperactive; even tags in her shirt make her irritable.Anxious Anna worries about school and her friends. Mostly she worries that she'll forget to do something important.Meet just a few of the girls with ADHD who inhabit this compassionate, fun, and ever-practical guide. It takes more than one or two to illustrate the wide-ranging symptoms of ADHD in girls.Beautifully designed with four-color illustrations and printed on slick paper, this book is perfect for reading with your daughter or letting her enjoy on her own. The information is solid and not '"dumbed down" but is clearly written and accessible. (In fact, I suspect moms with ADHD will gain much benefit, too!) Topics include:--Learning all about AD/HD--Getting organized--Paying attention--HOMEWORK!--Making and keeping friends--Dealing with your emotions (many people don't realize that ADHD can create problems regulating one's emotional state and reactions)--Understanding medicationAnd lots more.About the author: It is largely thanks to Patricia Quinn, M.D., a developmental pediatrician, that ADHD in women and girls has gotten the attention it deserves. Today, many women are discovering only in mid-life (and much later) that they've had ADHD all their lives but no one knew! Some must then deal not only with ADHD symptoms but with the emotional fallout from years of struggle and secret shame.Fortunately, girls growing up today can benefit from modern knowledge and, with this book, validation that they are not alone and there's nothing to be ashamed about.
