Dr. Budd is the author of Living With the Active Alert Child (Parenting Press), now in its third edition. This title has sold over 60,000 copies: close to 40,000 in its Parenting Press editions, and more than 15,000 in its earlier Prentice-Hall edition.
Dr. Budd's second book is The Journey of Parenting: Helping Your Child Become A Competent, Caring, Contributing Adult (CreateSpace). She was interviewed about this book at the web site Mom Enough.
Her most recent book, I'm OK, You're Not OK: Experiences of Having a Loved One With a Personality Disorder, came out in April, 2013.
