The Boy Who Lost His Attention
Until he discovered his super powers
by
DPA Weston
Once there was a boy who lost his attention ... until he discovered his superpowers. Based on a true story, this book highlights how an attention deficit diagnosis can explain children’s behaviour in school and at home and the struggle and frustration that follows for children, their parents, and their teachers. This book shares strategies on how to deal with an attention deficit diagnosis and how to manage the resultant behaviour. The book also recognizes a common family arrangement where children are parented by families who live separately but parent together. The book, The Boy Who Lost His Attention, shows how all people can overcome a learning challenge through persistence, resilience, and a growth mindset.
DPA Weston, the author, is an elementary teacher who works with students with special education needs in Ontario, Canada. In addition to teaching, Dr. Weston is a writer, instructor, volunteer, and advocate for human rights. DPA Weston loves helping students discover their own super powers. Leena AK, the illustrator, is a grade 5 student. She loves art, reading, writing, and history. When she grows up, Leena would like to be a fashion designer, a history professor, an artist, and a writer who publishes her own books. Ms. Weston was her grade 3 teacher.
