Carolyn Angelin wants a quiet life – a husband, couple of kids, a house in the ’burbs, and a dog.

Is that too much to ask?

When Carolyn finds herself pregnant, she and her husband, Martin, are excited at the prospect of a playmate for their first son, James. But they get more than they bargain for with not one, not two, but three baby boys – triplets!

The triplets prove to be dynamos from Day One. Their unruly behaviour gains momentum as they grow, and each day poses new challenges for Carolyn and Martin as they attempt to raise four boys under the age of two years old.

Suspecting something is not quite right after the triplets are expelled from playgroup, Carolyn searches for answers. Is there something wrong with the boys, or is she just a bad mother?
Carolyn’s journey takes her to the depths of despair and, ultimately, a major meltdown. She emerges to the discovery that her triplets suffer from ADHD.

ADHD to the Power of Three is a compelling and poignant tale of a mother’s triumph over adversity as her children’s condition threatens to derail her family. It is also a story of hope for anyone who’s ever felt that ‘life is just too hard.’


Hear Carolyn's story of her challenging journey as a mother raising three identical boys with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD).

Comedian and Actor Bob Franklin at Eltham Library

If you have have laughed at Bob’s work on shows like
Thank God You’re Here and The Librarians, come and be surprised by these “tales of unease” that comprise his beautifully crafted first book, Under Stones. A deft technician of story, Bob draws the reader down through a suburban landscape that is at once familiar and much stranger than we know it.


“This is the work not of a comedian writing ‘serious stuff’ on the side, but of a fully-fledged stylist with a voice all his own”. Tony Martin
