Some of the books I’ve bought that promote social and emotional learning… are duds. Sorry. I said it. They’re not engaging. The kids get bored and honestly it defeats the purpose of what you’re trying to do.
I stumbled upon an author by the name of Steve Herman who has created a series that my kid absolutely loves.
The first one I bought was called:
A Dragon With ADHD
It’s not just a children’s book; it’s like someone peeked into our lives and turned it into a magical, relatable story.
The main character is Drew – who happens to have a dragon that lives and goes to school with him.
The story gently tackles the challenges of ADHD. It’s not preachy; it’s like a buddy saying, “Hey, I get it.” My son likes to think that he too has a dragon that has ADHD. It made him feel like he was not alone in his struggles with ADHD and how his brain works differently.
“A Dragon with ADHD” opened up a whole new way for me and my kiddo to talk about ADHD. In a world that sometimes doesn’t get it, this book does. It’s more than a bedtime story; it’s a conversation starter, an ally in our ADHD journey. Trust me, it’s earned its spot on our bookshelf.
There are loads of other titles too like these:
Dragons not your thing? I got you. There are books that feature Unicorns and Dinosaurs too – if they’re more your thing.
