8. Why Can’t Jimmy Sit Still?
ADHD, or attention deficit and hyperactive disorder, is a challenging condition to live with. Children become frustrated because they can’t sit still, and the adults in their lives become frustrated because the children are frequently disruptive. This book helps explain ADHD from the perspective of a little boy who cannot sit still.
Jimmy’s mother describes him as a motor that is stuck in high gear and cannot turn off. She takes him to a doctor, and together, they develop a plan to help Jimmy gain control of his behavior and make better choices. This book helps empower children and families dealing with ADHD to take control of their lives.
