Meet Ellie Rose, a bright, curious 9-year-old with big ideas, big feelings, and a wonderfully busy-brilliant brain.
Ellie loves animals, music, crafts, sports, adventures, and spending time with her Mimi. She’s a natural leader who is always ready for the next exciting thing. But sometimes her thoughts race, waiting is hard, and her feelings can grow very big, very fast.
As Ellie learns about her ADHD, she begins to understand that her brain isn’t wrong—it simply works differently. With support from the people who love her, a few helpful tools, and plenty of practice, Ellie discovers how to slow down, understand her feelings, work through difficult moments, and recognize the amazing strengths that come with being exactly who she is.
Ellie Rose and Her Busy-Brilliant Brain is a warm, encouraging story about ADHD, friendship, emotional regulation, self-acceptance, and discovering the strengths inside a beautifully different brain.
