Complete Idiot's Guide to Car Care and Repair Illustrated by Dan Ramsey

In this insightful and practical book, the author shares the inner struggles of children and teens living with ADHD-and a way to achieve lasting success by working together in a way suitable for both parents and teachers. The advice and real-world examples and research reveal how parents and teachers can shift the focus and help kids succeed.

It could be challenging to differentiate between ADHD and normal behavior. If you notice only a few symptoms or the symptoms only manifest in few situations, it's likely not ADHD, if your child exhibits lots of ADHD signs or symptoms across all situations-at home, in school, during playtime, etc, then it's time for you to be observant.

Attention deficit disorder (AD) is a neurological disorder that triggers a variety of behavioral problems such as difficulty attending classes, concentrating on schoolwork, maintaining projects, following instructions, completing tasks, and social conversation. Once you understand how to cope and deal with people with ADHD effectively, you will immensely improve their health status.

Living with a child with ADHD can be frustrating and overwhelming, but as a parent(s), there's a lot you can do to control the symptoms; overcome daily problems, and bring calmness to your loved ones.

You will find lawyers, doctors, school principals - people from all walks of life - who've successfully handled their ADHD challenges.


Have you read several books on managing ADHD in children, but despite countless attempts to help your child cope and understand better in school by paying attention to instructions and detailed information, you're still struggling with everyday issues like homework, chores, getting him or her to listen when been talked to, and simply getting along without a push and power tussle?

What if you work with your child, motivating and encouraging him in the process, to create a positive change once and for all?

This book is meant to change the way kids think about their ADHD, and realize that they have special talents that are peculiar to them. With fun activities that engage their busy minds, this book offers parents and teachers a better understanding of kids with ADHD, and the simple things they can do to be more confident and in control.
