All Dogs Have ADHD by Kathy Hoopmann
1.0
I'm not sure about it. I heard that it was endearing and cute, yet surprisingly informative? And it was not informative in the slightest. However, it is achildren's book about acceptance and being seen, and for that it is a sweet book I guess? I feel like it didn't really do it's intended job... which was to use dogs as a metaphor to describe ADHD symptoms and coping tools so that little kids could understand. I do love doggo pictures???
edit: after reading some great reviews I decided to actually rate it 1 star. A reader pointed out that the whole book uses the pronoun he/him, which emphasizes the myth that boys are the only ones to struggle with ADHD, and that her girls did not feel seen when reading the book-- which is again the whole purpose of said book!
