All Dogs Have ADHD

I watch over a eight grade special education who have learning disabilities and other health impairments, such as ADHD. I too have ADHD as well as two of my children. This book brought a great sense of relief, as well as identity for the students. They, like myself, felt that the book describes ADHD in a way that is unlike others we have seen before. It is not written in a negative fashion. It is an encouragement to anyone who has ADHD. Instead of focusing on all of the negatives of ADHD the book finishes with saying that an individual who has ADHD has unlimited potential...which is what a lot of ADHDer's need to hear rather than how "annoying" we are.

Se nessa coleção de livrinhos todos os gatos estão no espectro autista, obviamente todos os cães têm TDAH. Mais um livrinho supimpa que amplia os horizontes das crianças sobre os coleguinhas e si mesmos.

A book with simple black text on a plain white background, accompanied by irresistible color photographs of dogs, doing all the sorts of things that dogs do best.

"When opportunity presents itself, he goes for it, (photo of a small dog streaking down the street pulling his owner) and may dive straight into a situation without thinking of the consequences (photo of dog leaping off stairs into a river)."

This book serves as a subtle reminder to parents, teachers and friends, that a child with ADHD is just as lovable, just as adorable as your beloved housepet, and probably deserves at least as much slack.

I thought that this was a beautifully written book that shows the difficulties and frustrations that come with having ADHD. I loved that the author associates ADHD with dogs because then maybe more people will read it because they might have dogs in there family. So it is more relatable to some people. This book really does a good job of showing the how frustrating it may be for someone who has ADHD, they can't concentrate for long, and they get bored easily.

I also really liked the way that the author used photographs of dogs as pictures in the story. Each dog shows another characteristic of ADHD and I thought that this was very relatable for some people. While I was reading this I was thinking about my cousin who has ADHD and her dog, show more who I have seen in the same positions as the dogs pictured in the book.

The message in this book is that with the right support and encouragement anyone can achieve their dreams and I think that this is a good message for a children's book. Overall, I really enjoyed reading this book. I learned something new and I love books about dogs. show less

All Dogs Have ADHD has to be one of my favorite children's books. It is so cute and it doesn't make a child feel like they are being called out. They can see how other animals also have ADHD through the pictures that correlate with the explanation of symptoms or characteristics of a child with ADHD. Such a great read for the 2nd-3rd grade.

This book is good for ages k-2nd, it highlights ADHD in a non-judgmental way and demonstrates the importance of loving everyone. It tells a great story and uses pictures of dogs instead of people, a downside to this book is that the book uses "he" and "his" a lot which can make girls feel left out.

This is a great book that explains that all dog have ADHD. Dogs were meant to explore and so on. It will help children understand ADHD and build self-esteem for children how have ADHD.
