(Central Coast, California) March 4, 2001 - 5.0/5 stars
When I first read "Driven to Distraction" it was out of deep concern for one of my daughters. But due to some very trying times of my own I picked up the books and read them again, and again, and again. I felt... read full review
4.Awesome book! Easy to understand!
(Chicago, IL. USA) February 14, 2001 - 5.0/5 stars

Parents of ADHD afflicted children will receive help and support by reading this book. Long on calm, rational information on what to expect; short on alarmist statements. Those who think ADHD is a myth should also read this.... and learn.

While many ADD books are filled with froth and fluff, and others are littered with mantras about accepting ADD in our life but, "Driven to Distraction" actually is useful. Buy it now before you forget... read full review
10.A really nice listen for anyone interested in ADHD
(Binghamton, NY United States) July 23, 2001 - 5.0/5 stars
This book/ tape is WONDERFUL. It really helped fill in some holes in my knowledge on the subject. The book is very good but as an adult with ADHD I find it very difficult to stay focused on a book that is so long,... read full review
