Synopsis
Key Selling Points An imaginative take on what it's like to have attention deficit hyperactive disorder (ADHD)--like having a huge house in your head with all sorts of different rooms that change their location or distract you with their flashing lights--and the isolation it can cause, but also the creativity and resilience it can engender. Vigg's first autobiographical book, drawn from his own childhood, captures what it was like to be a child who had not yet received his diagnosis of ADHD but was trying to fit in with what the world expected of him. In its original French edition (published by Fonfon), this book won the French-language TD Canadian Children's Literature Award and the Prix Harry Black, and it was a finalist for the Governor General's Literary Award. Dynamic, evocative illustrations communicate the feeling of being isolated and overwhelmed by thoughts and ideas; the creative text design adds to the originality., "A celebration of hope, resilience, and the power of -self-acceptance that will resonate with readers of all ages...A work that depicts -vividly what the mind of a person with ADHD experiences...Highly recommended." -- School Library Journal How is Vincent supposed to focus when there's so much going on at once?! Vincent has a huge house in his head. It has an entrance, a living room, dark rooms, a light room, a space room and a control room. Vincent spends a lot of time in the control room trying to figure out how it all works, but with its thousands of flashing lights, buttons, levers and blinking screens, it can be total chaos--how is he supposed to know where to look? At school, when he tries to recite a fable in front of his class, he blows it. Even though he knows it by heart, not a single syllable comes to mind. Vincent feels like a misfit when people tell him to just concentrate, and he often has trouble in school. He can't seem to think, but he also can't stop thinking. Sometimes he wants to escape his own head and just be like everyone else. But maybe Vincent doesn't have to be the same as everyone else after all. Maybe he just has to learn how to look, to find the light room and see things in his own way. Inspired by the author's experience growing up with ADHD, Lost Inside My Head is a touching and illuminating story that brings the reader into the thoughts, struggles, joys and uniqueness of a young child with ADHD., Vincent wishes he was like everyone else, but his ADHD makes his thoughts turn to chaos...until he learns he can be himself and focus his light on what he wants to see.

    Although this book was not as described, with no picture of it in the listing, the seller communicated well and quickly gave me a full refund while letting me keep it. The minimal packaging left the book a bit vulnerable (typical for ThriftBooks), but it did arrive safely and timely. As usual, it’s hit or miss with this seller, but often times you can get great values, and their customer service is always very good. Many other sellers with millions of transactions don’t even communicate.

    I've ordered several items from this vendor now and they've always been what they were advertised as. This was no exception. Both discs were in great shape as well as their jewel cases. Delivery is good, packaging is simple but effective for what you're paying and I haven't had any get damaged. Will keep buying from this vendor because of the results so far and good prices, too.
