The Boy with the Butterfly Mind by Victoria Williamson

4.0

3.5 stars? As the parent of an ADHD child I sought this out as a book with an ADHD child as a main character. I’m not sure how to give words to my reactions. Much of this rang true for me but parts of it felt more like the author was just taking a composite of the ADHD experience and ramming it into one character. I liked the characters and how the author gave voice to what was motivating the actions that adults see. I did feel that there was a lot of nuance missing. My child is older now. I wish we’d had them when we were reading together. It would have been a great discussion tool for them to put words around their own ADHD experience.
