“Sandra Rief has brought together her expert knowledge of ADHD with her extensive experience in teaching children with ADHD.

The ADHD Book of Lists first written and published by Sandra Rief 10 years ago has been an incredible resource to parents of ADHD children, physicians, mental health providers, and particularly educators. It includes a great overview of the many aspects of ADHD, and how ADHD impacts behavior, learning, and maturation into adulthood. It has provided, by using a “book of lists” format, a thorough yet practical approach to all the issues that arise in these children and adolescents. And in this revised edition, Sandra takes it to a new level, particularly how the new DSM-5 guidelines open up new concepts in the understanding and care of ADHD. This invaluable resource should be utilized by all those caring for children with ADHD.”
