Summary: Mark Jacob Makes ADD So Easy To Understand
Review: Having been personally touched by this dissorder, I was pleasantly surprised to find this book by Mark Jacob. I have a nephew and a friend both suffering from this condition for many years. I enjoyed the frankness and the flow of this book that gave me a better understanding of what I have been witnessing for the last 15 years. Recalling back all the situations I have witnessed over this time literally brought me to tears. These children when calm, are wonderful and bright. They deserve more than the system seems to be dishing them out. This book gave me greater insight into the problems of the people I love and hope that Mr. Jacob succeeds with his quest to help us understand ADD better. Thank you Mark for helping us. I look forward to the next addition.

Summary: Mark Jacob Makes ADD So Easy To Understand
Review: If it were possible for the author to move into my home and provide on the job training while I attempt to parent my ADD kid, it would be perfect. However this isn't a perfect world, and I have to settle for his book...the next best arrangement. This is truly the best book I have ever read on this subject. I laughed and cried. Mr. Jacob tells a story in a way that is just so different. If you are a Mom or a Dad or just a human with an interest in what it's like to raise a kid that truly marches to a different drummer...buy this book!

Summary: A Dad's Bible
Review: Most books on this subject can be very long, detailed and quite complex. This book let's the parents, especially Dad, understand that they are not alone in this situation. It speaks to you! It is direct, funny and very helpful. Should be kept on the night table and used as a daily guide.

Summary: A Dad's Bible
Review: My wife gave me this book and though I was reluctant to read it, it has become my "bible". This IS a toolbox for life with an ADD child and I highly recommend it to all Dads (and Moms) of ADD children.
