This book teaches young children to manage their thoughts and words without interrupting

Although Louis knows a lot about outer space, the young boy finds himself sent to Principal Goodkid's office to attend Personal Space Camp after his teacher loses her patience with his behavior.

A positive resource for anyone dealing with ADHD or challenged by someone who has ADHD....
