BOOKS TO READ:

A Parent’s Guide To Gifted Children, by Webb, Gore, Amend, and DeVries- if you are going to just get one
book, get this one! Great overview of parenting gifted children.

How the Gifted Brain Learns, by David Sousa- this book is loaded with ideas for application to our children’s
learning. My second favorite book!

Re-Forming Education, by Karen B Rogers- describes various ways to educate gifted children.

The Cluster Grouping Handbook, by Susan Winebrenner and Dina Brulles- if your child is in a clustered
classroom (which is everyone besides the self-contained classes) this book will help you understand how
things are and should be going.

Some of My Best Friends Are Books, by Judith Wynn Halsted- has great book lists for gifted children to read

The Gifted Kids Survival Guide (for ages 10 & under or A Teen Handbook), by Judy Galbraith

Living With Intensity, by Susan Daniels and Michael M Piechowski

Yes, You Are a Genius, by Susanna Lange and Otto Siegel- Otto spoke to our parent group last year and was
amazing!

Happy Learning!
