Emma’s Spikes:
The adventures of a girl with ADHD

Emma can’t fall asleep. She wonders if her bed is broken.
But it’s her relationships with those who surround her that are “broken”.
They are characterized by embarrassment, miscommunication and misunderstanding.
People are impatient with her spiny behavior.

During her little journey she explores herself: Is she lazy or curious and adventurous?
Is she stupid and weak-willed, or sensitive and caring?
Let this bitter-sweet story lead you through some daily challenges of a child with ADHD.

The book is based on a personal story of a creative child, full of good intentions.
In order to help children with ADHD, the first step is to better understand what they are coping with.

REVIEWS

Benjamin Greenberg, Ph.D. Psychiatrist: “I loved the book. The story touches the inner world of many children, it’s written in a sensitive and precise way, mostly with love and compassion.  The story is charming and captivating as an adventure and also as a rich story with images, with a meaningful message”.

Liat Keren, Child Psychotherapist: “A wonderful book that clearly and sensitively describes a girl with spikes.
I’m sure everyone knows a kid like that. The book helps to understand these children better – it translates thorny behavior into our language and leaves the reader willing to embrace diversity.”
