ADHD workbooks - reviews/experiences

DS1 (13) just got diagnosed. Known for years but he's been masking apparently.

They want us to do a workbook with him, living in Germany I wasn't sure what would be available so I had a look on amazon/thalia and wrote them all down, screened out the ones that looked useless or the authors seemed clueless/unhelpful, and was left with these:

The ADHD Workbook for Teens by Lara Honos-Webb
Thriving with ADHD Workbook for Teens by Allison K. Tyler (ADHDstrategymom on social media)

Lara's book looks more dated whereas Allison's looks a bit more modern. I can find more general web content from Lara than Allison - hint, do not google video search Allison's name as it seems she unfortunately shares a name with an adult performer! But I was impressed/happy with the content I found from both of them. They both seem to understand ADHD well.

Lara has a newer book out called Six Super Skills for Executive Functioning, which sounds even better, but doesn't seem to be in a workbook format.

Anyway I was just wondering if anyone has read or used any of these three and what you thought of them, or if you had positive/negative experiences with any others.
