Media reviews

“Ben Polis is a hero. His account of growing up with ADD is spellbinding, as well as immensely useful in its practical advice.”
–from the Preface by Edward M. Hallowell, M.D., co-author of Driven to Distraction and Delivered from Distraction


“Only a Mother Could Love Him is a wonderful and very poignant view of ADD from the inside looking out, with wisdom that could come only from someone who has lived with ADD. Polis’s combination of honesty and perceptiveness makes this an inspirational book for anyone who has ADD, but especially for anyone who must deal with an ADD child.”
–ANTHONY E. WOLF, PH.D.

“In his funny, honest, and moving account of growing up with ADD, Ben Polis speaks with the wise voice of a young man who has struggled hard with invisible demons–but also with the wisecracking voice of a smart and perceptive child. . . . He makes you laugh, and he makes you admire his courage, his talent, his tenacity, and his sense of humor.”
–PERRI KLASS, M.D., medical director and president, Reach Out
and Read National Center, co-author of Quirky Kids
