“Kids with AD/HD have little control over their energy levels or how frequently they get distracted. Neither does the little boy and main character of My Whirling, Twirling Motor. From the perspective of the boy, you can sympathize with his difficulties and as he puts it, his “whirling, spinning, humming motor” that gets him into trouble…AD/HD can be a difficult concept for kids to wrap their heads around, so the metaphor of a constantly running car motor is an easier way to unpack the condition.” – Rebecca Proulx, BookTrib
