About this listen

Would You Teach a Fish to Climb a Tree?: A Different Take on Kids with ADD, ADHD, OCD and Autism provides us with a refreshing and new perspective on these children who are so different from their peers. Co-authored by three practitioners who have had remarkable success working with them, this audiobook is filled with practical tools, stories, observations, and life-changing questions that can be used by anyone who has one of these kids in their life and who is looking for something different.

These children are magical and you are sure to fall in love with many of them. There are many magical adults as well... those who are willing to step beyond what so many experts in the field advocate and into what they actually know to be effective with the children. Parents and siblings and relatives; teachers and therapists and administrators; peers and loved ones and friends... all will benefit from this groundbreaking audiobook.

Interesting approach...

Uses terms like energy, and helps those with and working with children with diagnosis not only chance the language but our approach to so called disabilities.

I ranked it a 4/5 overall because without more reading I felt lost or wishy woshy on some of the ideas like energy and space, main concepts to she 3 author collaboration. But I understand this book is intended to give alternatives to mainstream psychology / psychiatry. I just wish there was more proof of concepts and definitions used. But overall I still gained a lot to aid my autistic son.

How does it get any better than this book? The tools and insight this book provides are growth inducing. You always have a choice, some you just didn’t know we’re possible and this book opens up a world of possibilities to new choices when dealing with any kid or kid in adult clothing!!!

Swimmingly fantastic!

If you want some more empathy with those with special needs, without a deep commitment to reality, this book is for you. Want to hear stories about how the authors quote gibberish and use telepathy to speak to animals and autistic kids? This book is for you.

the night that I was led to this book I was having a particularly hard time with my oldest diagnosed with ADHD. I was brought to tears and describing characteristics I am my son's teacher had been struggling with for quite some time. frustrated yet again and feeling all other strategies had fallen short, I stumbled Upon This Book. I'm very thankful for the determination and compassion that took place in the hearts of these authors to seek understanding.

Thankful
