The books "survival guide" format meets this important need. The book’s format is designed so the reader can read either from cover to cover and/or read individual sections that are of special interest and deal with a particular need. A "Review and Tips" section is provided at the end of individual sections for a review of important suggestions and themes. The "Review and Tips" format provides the reader with two options: either to review highlighted material and tips immediately after reading a section, or to return to it at a later date. The book not only covers ADHD problem behaviors in great depth, but it does so in a friendly and supportive style that is easy for readers to use and understand.

The book includes a forward, introduction, table of contents, ten chapters, references, exhibits, and recommended readings for parents and children.
