  • 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 . . . book, Ellen Winner uncovers and explores 9 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. Winner uses her research with these and several other extraordinary children, as well as the latest biological and psychological evidence, to debunk the many myths about academic, musical, and artistic giftedness. [This book] also looks at the role played by schools in fostering exceptional abilities. Winner castigates schools for wasting resources on weak educational programs for the moderately gifted. Instead, she advocates elevating standards for all children and focusing our resources for gifted education on those with extreme abilities—children who are left untouched by the kinds of minimal programs we have today.
