The contrast between expectations and genuine capability is stark but invisible with ADHD, creating challenges every moment in all aspects of life. In What to Expect When You’re Not Expecting ADHD, Williams offers a 9-step plan to tame (much of) the chaos and turn (most of) the struggles into triumphs. She steers you through methodically learning about your child’s behaviors, strengths, and weaknesses, and how to use that knowledge to improve life for your child with ADHD and your entire family. Don’t be fooled though — this is not your typical book on ADHD. Williams keeps it real, providing authentic, down in the trenches, trial-by-fire advice from a momma who has lived it, figuring it out one mistake day at a time. “I wish this book had been available when we first found ourselves on the ADHD path,” says Lisa Carley-Baxter, North Carolina mom of three, one who has ADHD. “That’s precisely why I wrote this book!” says Williams. “I endured a long and arduous learning curve when my son was diagnosed with ADHD in 2008. I share what I’ve learned through research and my experience parenting my son, ‘Ricochet’ “I suspect this book would have made me a better mother,” said Katherine Ellison, Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist and author of Buzz: A Year of Paying Attention, “had I had such a book, say, 10 years ago when my own son was diagnosed.” Williams’ first book, Boy Without Instructions, reached #1 in the parenting hyperactive children category on Amazon.com within the first week of pre-release sales. It went on to win the 2014 USA Book Awards’ Finalist award in Parenting & Family. “I am stunned by the number of notes I’ve already received from readers who really connected with the book,” Williams adds. “While each child with ADHD has a unique constellation of challenges, the emotional upheaval of raising a child with ADHD seems to transcend those differences and resonate with everyone traveling this special parenthood trajectory.” Penny Williams is the author of the award-winning, Amazon best-seller, Boy Without Instructions: ISBN (paperback) 0991617827 ISBN (eBook) 978-0-9916178- Order the book through Ingram (wholesale) or Amazon.com (consumer).
