Very specific to girls and women getting diagnosed with ADHD in Britain. I wish something like this existed for Canada. The last story of personal anecdotes was really cute from an 11 year old.

to say I read this cover-to-cover would be a lie, but I took everything I needed from it

An excellent, much needed book. The intended audience felt a little unclear with some of the chapters geared towards parents and others towards medical professionals, but I still found it relevant to me as a teacher. That said, I was disappointed that the chapter on education was almost entirely about UK educational policy, making it irrelevant to those of us outside the UK. Generally speaking, an excellent and highly recommended read for anyone wanting to learn about ADHD in girls/women.

Because I live in the US I did not read the chapters about schools and women with ADHD. But the bulk of the book is about girls with ADHD and how it impacts all parts of their lives. This very informative and helpful in what to expect and what to look for.
