Billy Can't Slow Down!
By Elaheh Bos and Dr. Stephanie Margolese, Ph.D.
Billy the rabbit is great at playing video games and soccer but struggles to pay attention and sit still in class. He is always getting into trouble with his classmates, teachers, and parents for one reason or another, even though he doesn’t mean to. After his teacher suggests he sees a psychologist to get tested, Billy learns he has Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). Through the help of his parents, teachers, and doctors, he learns new ways and tools to help him manage his difficulties.
