520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
Summary, etc | Gifted children - children years ahead of their peers - have long inspired fascination, envy, fear, and rejection. Misconceptions about children with special abilities abound. In this fascinating book, Ellen Winner uncovers and explores nine myths about giftedness, and shows us what these children are really like. Using vivid case studies, Winner paints a complex picture of the gifted child. Here we meet David, a three-year-old who learned to read in two weeks; KyLee, a five-year-old who mastered on his own all of the math concepts expected by the end of elementary school; and Nadia, an autistic and retarded "savant" who nevertheless could draw like a Renaissance master |
