a heartwarming story about a child struggling with ADHD. Her parents remind her of all her good personality traits when she feels down on herself for "messing up."

I received the ARC through NetGalley and I am so glad that I requested this book.

This book is no longer available on NetGalley but there's a feature to "Wish for It" and I use it as I am interested with this book. I have read several books from APA's publisher and love most of them.

This book is another lovely book, about a girl with attentional issues. The book use the girl's perspective, so we can feel related to what's on her mind.

The author is an ADHD Cerfiticate Clinical Services Provider and in this book, she also share how to deal with the special needs' kids, especially the one with attentional issues like Sadie, the main character on this book.

The author also mentioned that usually a child with attentional issues may go unnoticed as needing help, well, because they are usually too busy with their own minds. However, they mostly misunderstood as lazy or slacking off on purpose.

That is why, parents must try to understand children's behaviour and character, as parents have the biggest role on children's development.

This book also have great illustration and simple story, so can be enjoyed both by parents and the kids

I received this ebook from NetGalley in exchange for an honest review.

I liked this book and the fact that it addresses ADHD. I like how all of the animals and things that she imagines are illustrated in dotted lines so that the reader knows that is her imagination and not really there. I would have liked a solution to her ADHD or some tips/tricks to help her focus more in school and at home, but I did like the fact that she has a jar to put her ideas in.

I experience this book as a wordless one, but I think something was wrong with my NetGalley copy of it because I'm not sure it's suppose to be. The art was interesting the way it help seeing the reality versus the girl imaginative stuff is very well done, in a simple way, but it worth really great. Can't say much more... But from what I've seen this might be worth looking. If this is really wordless then it should have something more to it...
