Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Very insightful and we're glad we found it
Review: Our entire Tourette group has passed this book around and it is very good. Even small children can understand the messages here. And, they are happy to find out a young child their age wrote it. Two adult Touretters also said they felt just that way, and never thought anyone else did.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Great book for even an oldster like me
Review: The book is written for a very young audience, but when my 27 year-old son read it he cried. He could remember feeling the same way, and even doing the same things. He had never talked to anyone about it, but really opened up after reading it. We had a hard time getting a diagnosis, so it was especially heartfelt for me to learn that we're not alone in this big thing.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Hi, I'm Adam
Review: This book is WONDERFUL! We are raising our 11 year old nephew who has Tourette's, along with several other things, and he really needed some help understanding Tourette's so that he could explain it to his peers. He's been picked on at school because of his tics and we wanted something that he could read and understand. This fit the bill! THANK YOU, ADAM! He's reading Adam and the Magic Marble now. He said its a little harder to read (he's a little behind in reading skills than most 11 y/o's) but its a good read. He took it to bed tonight to read more.

Rating: 3 stars
Summary: WOW.. I'm glad some of you liked my book..
Review: WOW! You have no idea how good it feels seeing that some people actually appreciated my writings.. that's just awesome! Thanks so much for taking the time to understand how i felt (I was only 10) about having to live with Tourette's Syndrome. Thanks even more for reviewing my book.. wow. I'm glad to see I've been able to reach people and help them. I'm 20 now, and it's been 10 years since I wrote those books, but it was a genuine feeling of accomplishment and meaning when I read your reviews. Again, thank you very much, you just made my dad/week/year..

(It wouldn't let me post this without rating the book, so I gave it a middle-rating of 3, hope I don't affect anything with that)
