If you have attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), you might struggle with things like concentrating in school, or sitting still, or remembering lots of instructions. But ADHD is also a superpower.
In this book you will meet different girls and boys with ADHD who can do amazing things. You might recognise some of these strengths as things that you can do too! Some of these strengths help with everyday life, like being able to hyper-focus on a task or having boundless energy to try new things. Some strengths are superpowers for interacting with others, like having a strong sense of what is fair or entertaining friends and family to make them feel happy.
These awesome ADHD kids also share things that you can ask grown-ups to do to help you, like providing visual aids, creating calm spaces, communicating effectively and being kind and patient.
This book also provides guidance for parents and teachers, with advice on how they can support children with suspected or diagnosed ADHD at home or in the classroom, and provides further resources and bonus content.

Press Reviews
Nichola Parody. Parent of an ADHD Superhero.
One of the most important parts of any parent and child's ADHD journey, is finding positive and child friendly materials to share and discuss. Those early conversations are the building blocks of your journey to come, and Soli's book ADHD Is Our Superpower is the perfect first step. Relatable child characters who experience a variety of challenges and advantages as part of their ADHD ensure any child reading this book will feel less alone, and less worried about their future. Written in such a positive and encouraging style, and covering areas of ADHD such as sensory experiences, sibling rivalry, and ADHD within the family, that are not commonly discussed, but are hugely relevant.

An uplifting, easy-to-read, fun and engaging book for young children who may be struggling to understand and accept their ADHD diagnosis.

This book provides such a warm and child-friendly understanding of ADHD, useful for children and adults who support them such as teachers, social workers and even their parents. It really shows just how hard children with ADHD try and teaches them that they can still succeed! The voice of the child is so important. They need to be heard. This book gives them that voice. I'm so glad that this book shows that people with ADHD can be very different, even if they all have the same condition.
Michelle Beckett, Founder, ADHD Action
What a brilliant and important book to build self-esteem and confidence in children with ADHD! It's so important to know that others share the same challenges and strengths as we do. This will help kids feel less different, more understood and part of a 'tribe', as well as busting stigma and spreading knowledge about the condition. The characters are so relatable. What a warm, lively and fabulous book. An utter delight to support both children with ADHD, and their families.
