Abstract
Léo a neuf ans quand il reçoit un diagnostic de TDA/H.
« J'ai un QUOI ? » se demande-t-il, un peu confus. Comment répondre à cette question? Rien de mieux qu'un conte illustré pour expliquer aux enfants les différentes facettes du TDA/H ! Votre enfant se comporte-t-il comme un chat-garou ? Agit-il plutôt en tortuette ? Ou bien, peut-être est-il doté de l'énergie d'une sautabeille ? Découvrez-le avec lui grâce à la section « auto-observation » de ce petit livre sympathique et coloré. Des trucs applicables au quotidien sont aussi donnés pour surmonter les difficultés reliées au TDA/H, par exemple : rester concentré, s'organiser, planifier, se calmer et maîtriser ses émotions.
Cet ouvrage est un outil indispensable pour les parents et les intervenants qui souhaitent aborder ce trouble avec les enfants, d'une façon simple et imagée. Comprendre le TDA/H, ce n'est pas si compliqué !

Attention Deficit Disorder. Hyperactivity
Abstract
A practical guide on how to live with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder for adolescents and adults.
ADHD first manifests in childhood with symptoms of inattention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. The strategies to attenuate
the symptoms act like ?glasses for the brain?, helping with concentration and controlling fidgetiness. Did you know that over half of children affected by ADHD still show symptoms when they reach adulthood? That means they still need glasses and should know about the resources available for them as grown-ups. Relying on the latest research in the field, this book is an indispensable guide for all those who want to understand and find tools to better cope with ADHD. Accessible and packed with illuminating testimonials, it takes the reader step by step through the clinical symptoms, diagnostic approach and pharmacological treatments available for this neurodevelopmental problem. Thoroughly practical, this guide is also a treasure trove of practical tips and tricks to help adolescents and adults affected by ADHD to develop effective adaptive strategies to deal with the challenges they face from day to day.
