Bravo Ian! As well as presenting a strong argument for arts education in schools, your story of dedication and determination is a testament to the power of faith friendship, and music.

John Fanning C.M. Canadian and International Baritone

This is a book that balances a breezy, conversational style and tone with subject matter that is deeply important. W. Ian Walker’s engaging narrative carries us through the highs and lows of what is an extraordinary personal journey to triumph over personal adversity with ADHD. One would expect the extremely challenging setbacks and years of hardship that Ian recounts would have turned him bitter. Remarkably, they did not. Fortified by faith, Ian’s voice is buoyant, cheerful, and encouraging.

Dr. Kathleen Garay (Retired) McMaster University

Gratitude and perseverance describe Ian’s journey from a childhood of being different to the adult discovery of a learning disability that impacted relationships and career opportunities. The diagnosis of ADHD end encounters with the Holy Spirit provided a new lens through which to view past hurts and to anticipate the future with hope and a song in his heart.

Dr. Carol A Wood (Retired) Ecumenical Chaplain, McMaster University

In walking through this story of Ian’s life, you will be astounded at his deep and lasting honouring of family, friendship and mentoring relationships – those who walked beside him with insight, love and patience through challenging times and helped develop the delightful person he is today. His outgoing, creative, humorous nature comes through as the artist/musician and singer within him is released and continues to bring healing to the ADHD disability he has lived with since childhood. Finding peace and tranquility with God, the healing, restorative dynamics of music, both from within and without, have definitely stirred his soul to sing. Now it’s his aspiration to impart what he has learned, not through education and degrees but by experience, to others – individuals both old and young who are trapped in ADHD. This book is just one of the resources he is using and I am pleased to endorse it.
