Did you every feel like there's a jumping bean inside of you even when you are trying to sleep? I do.
I feel wiggly and itchy almost all the time!

Cory Stories Reviews

Cory has ADHD. In short stories and poems, he describes how it affects his day-to-day life, his relationships, and his schoolwork. Cory Stories offers age-appropriate introductions to ADHD treatments like medication, counseling, and behavior modifications. If your child has difficulty coming to terms with his ADHD or his treatment plan, this is a great book to help him understand he isnt alone. * ADDitude Magazine *
There are more and more books coming out for kids with ADHD, and this is a nice one. * Impact ADHD *
Corys Stories presents a nice, straightforward depiction of a child with ADHD who children can relate to, regardless or whether or not they share Corys condition....Its not a comprehensive guide to ADHD, but it does present a character whose experiences will be relatable to children who have the same condition and help make those who dont more empathetic and understanding. The pictures go well with the text and add some humor to the story (I particularly liked his mad face when he talked about first grade being worse than kindergarten), and they do a good job of showing Corys active side. * Books, Bytes and a Few Other Things *
