Thank you so much for this simple and fun book that both coaches and parents can use effectively with their respective clients or children." —Allison Burns, ACC and ADHD coach Long Description Meet Marvin, a lovable monster with a twelve-stringed baby fang guitar, a rambunctious case of ADHD, and a diary to record it all.

Special needs books, though well intentioned, can easily become overly sweet, simplistic, and sometimes pedantic. Marvins Monster Diary is the opposite. Its full of Wimpy Kid-like doodles and jokes and delivers a humorous first-person narrative that kids will readily relate to. Hilarious doodles on every page. Doesnt just explain ADHD, but provides simple, concrete techniques ("monstercam" and "ST4") that kids can use to be mindful and focus. Includes a section for parents and teachers to better understand the techniques and other overall strategies for working with a child with ADHD. Clinical underpinnings for the book comes from Dr. Raun Melmed, the medical director of the Melmed Center in Scottsdale, AZ. As a developmental and behavioral pediatrician, he has worked on creating nationally recognized physician training programs for the early identification of infants and toddlers with developmental and behavioral concerns. Hes also the coauthor of Succeeding with Difficult Children, and has published numerous medical articles.
