Editor's Notes and Comments:
Brief Book Summary:
Kids in the Syndrome Mix is a concise, scientifically up-to-date, all-in-one guide to the whole range of often co-existing neuro-behavioral disorders in children—from attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), obsessive-compulsive disorder, and bipolar disorder, to autistic spectrum disorders, nonverbal learning disabilities, sensory integration problems, and executive dysfunction.
Dr. Kutscher provides accessible information on causes, symptoms, interactions with other conditions, and treatments. He presents effective behavioral strategies for responding to children who display traits of these disorders—whether at home, at school, or in other settings—along with case vignettes and practical tips.
The author’s sympathetic yet upbeat approach and skillful explanations of the inner world of children in the syndrome mix make this an invaluable companion for parents, teachers, professionals, and anyone else who needs fast and to-the-point advice on children with special needs.

I'm a grandmother, trying to help my daughter find information on how to deal with the behavior of children with possible ADHD. Her son is 3-1/2 and can be difficult to control at times. I didn't pass this book on to her because I didn't feel it would help.

Gives great explanation for how childhood disorders can co-occur. I recommend it for everyone who is lucky enough to work with kids or have kids of their own read this book.

"Kids in the Syndrome Mix" is helpful and covers the common diagnoses we encounter in the classroom. I would couple this purchase with another title to gain insight into the families involved in these personal struggles, to add a level of intimacy and personalization, and to learn of symptoms very first hand. I recommend buying this book along with "Mommy I'm Still in Here" by Kate McLaughlin. With both books, you begin to see the whole picture.

This is one of the best books that I have read to help me understand not only my own complicated child but many of the boys and girls that I have taught over the years. Martin Kutscher and the other contributing writers do an excellent job explaining the characteristics and challenges of a variety of common syndromes like ADHD, Aspergers, LD, etc. The authors show readers how to help children and young adults function in our world.
I highly recommend parents and teachers of children with special needs to read and discuss this book. Although I have read numerous other books about children with ADHD, Asperger's, etc, this book provides a lot of valuable information and useful suggestions in an easy to understand format. This would be a great book to use in schools for staff development.
