Shelley, the Hyperactive Turtle is an impulsive, wiggly, and mischievous turtle who can’t understand why he is always getting into trouble. Shelley has some bumpy times at school, on the bus, and with other kids. His worried mother takes him to the doctor, where she and Shelley answer a lot of questions about his behavior and he plays with puzzles and blocks. After Shelley is diagnosed, the doctor recommends therapy and medication to help control his AD/HD.
This is a reassuring story for young children who are going through the diagnostic process or who are having problems behaving at school or making friends because of AD/HD. The illustrations are colorful and engaging and will delight any reader – whether a child or teacher or parent. Ideal for children ages 3-7.
