Review
------
The author uses adorably cute photos of dogs to illustrate
common traits of ADHD. This book will be a helpful addition to
the professional library because it can serve as a tool to help
children or adults to understand what it may be like to live with
ADHD. Author: Je Parker, Librarian, Irving Independent School

Two books (All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome and All Dogs Have ADHD
both by Kathy Hoopmann) that use a novel, photographic approach
to exploring the characteristic personality traits of ADHD and
Asperger's Syndrome... Must-have titles for parents with children
diagnosed with either of these conditions, and also for Special
Needs co-ordinators and Inclusion Manager... Both highly
recommended. Author: ACHUKA children's blog
all dogs have ADHD is part of a picture book series along with
all cats have Asperger's syndrome, exploring through images the
challenges of living with attention deficit and hyperactivity
disorder (ADHD) in a gentle and humorous way. The pictures and
captions present life situations with a thoughtful understanding
and focus, too, on positive ways' to channel an ADHD child's
energy and talents. Author: British Psychological Society, Debate
This sequel to All Cats Have Asperger Syndrome takes the same
approach, matching adorable animal photos with the particular
traits of children with the disorder. It's an extremely
accessible formula, and one that has the potential not only to
inform, but to make kids with ADHD feel better about themselves
by comparison to such cool critters. Author: About.com
I would commend this book as an excellent work to alleviate
patients' and parents' concerns, and to introduce the condition
to those who may be having difficulty seeing any positives in
their lives at the time of diagnosis. Author: ADHD in Practice
This is an absorbing and inful photo-illustrated read, which
takes a really refreshing approach to understanding ADHD. This is
an uplifting book for anyone, but especially dog lovers, and
those wanting to help children they know with ADHD. Author: EYE

It is a book that parents and children can look at together. The
photographs are wonderful and suit the dialogue. It is bright and
optimistic and implies, with the right help, the child with ADHD
will do well. The book also explains the syndrome clearly in
simple photographs. The lettering and dialogue are clear and
understandable... It is a lovely happy book. Author: Hyperactive

'Although All Dogs Have ADHD is categorized as juvenile
literature, and will certainly appeal to many children, I highly
recommend it as a "" for tired parents of children with
ADD/ADHD and other special needs -- after all, laughter heals."
Author: ADDitude: Living Well with Attention Deficit
Clearly the author writes from personal experience as she
understands the issue so well. This book would give encouragement
and reassurance to a child who has been diagnosed with ADHD and
the light-hearted ins into the condition would be helpful
for parents and siblings as well. Author: Home Education Advisory
