If you are seeking to understand your gifted child and how you play a key role in their educational and emotional development.

This collection of articles from the NAGC brings together a comprehensive guide allowing parents to explore topics of concern or interest regarding their gifted child. The topics are narrowed into categorical headings which make for ease of use when reading the book. 

This isn't a book that you pick up and read front to back. It serves as a reference for topics like, gifted characteristics, diversity (uniqueness of gifted children), educational programs, family life with a gifted individual, social & emotional information, the nature of giftedness and assessment information, information for twice exceptional (2e) children and more. 

There is so much great information about  successfully supporting your gifted child.  I was surprised to find there were characteristics in my children (and other children that I work with in extracurricular activities) that I did not recognize as traits of giftedness.  This book helped me tune in to each child and their needs.  Thank you.

This is an excellent resource for anyone drowning in the mire of trying to best help their gifted child. The editors pulled some of the best insights and resources available into a nice compendium. A must have!
