When his mom wants to talk to him he figures hes in troublebut she has a surprise for him instead!Includes a Note to Parents Caregivers and Teachers with more information on ADHD behavior management and helping children focus on the positives.The story reinforces that his being overactive and impulsive is not intentional and does not make him bad.
