Another great book to check out...

I recently came across this book and wanted to share it with you. The title is The ADHD Book of Lists and it was written by Sandra F. Rief, M.A. It's an amazing resource for all things ADD/ADHD. It covers topics from diagnosis, treatment, academic effects, family & sibling issues, etc. All of the information is presented in a list format which makes it extremely easy to find exactly the information you're looking for without having to read through paragraph after paragraph of nonsense. I first checked out a copy from our local library and knew right away that this was one I wanted to have in my own collection to refer back to when necessary. I picked up my own, new copy at half.com for less than $20. You can even visit amazon.com and take a peek at the table of contents in addition to a few pages to see if you'd be interested. Let me know what you think about it.

P.S. -- Here's an excerpt from the back cover: "The ADHD Book of Lists is a comprehensive, reliable source of answers, practical strategies, and tools in a convenient list format. Created for teachers (K-12), parents, school psychologists, medical and mental health professionals, counselors, and other school personnel, this important resource contains the most current information about ADHD. It is filled with the strategies, supports, and interventions that have been found to be the most effective in minimizing the problems and optimizing the success of children and teens with ADHD. The book contains a wealth of information to guide in the management of ADHD in school and at home. In addition, The ADHD Book of Lists' easy-to-us 81/2" x 11" lay-flat format is filled with reproducible checklists, forms, tools, and resources."
