I particularly appreciate the way this book is broken down into smaller, absorbable articles, which made the tomb less intimidating. The sections are well laid out and include social-emotional learning, creativity and advocacy, to name a few. I particularly appreciated the section on nurturing creativity, something that can fall by the wayside when academics become a central focus. Strategies aren’t just laid out, but readers are asked to reflect on how these various ideas presented in the book relate to their specific child, allowing this book to cater to each individual gifted child, whatever a family’s needs may be.
