Editorial Reviews

A useful guide for all learners, not just those who identify as gifted
Parents and teachers may find the plentitude of model dialogues with students, the analysis of where the dialogue went wrong, and the examples of improved conversations helpful in a variety of contexts with a variety of learners.
This book's simple-to-use strategies and breakdowns of common school and home-based issues also make it a strong choice for a PTA book club read., Amy Estersohn, MiddleWeb, 8/25/16
Emotional Intensity In Gifted Students is a resource that can help parents and teachers understand why gifted children have such passionate--and sometimes explosive--feelings and behaviors . . . Special worksheets, checklists, and tip sheets are included. These features recap the material covered in the chapter and provide specific directions about how to implement the information in real life. At the end of certain chapters, there are sections called "Notes to the Teacher." These sections can help educators make a positive impact on the gifted children in their classrooms. The resources and references at the book's conclusion increase the reliability of the information presented. This book would be beneficial for parents and teachers of gifted children., Lynndy Hurdle, VOYA, 4/1/16
Written in an accessible, conversational style, Emotional Intensity in Gifted Students is a "must" for educators and parents of gifted children at all levels of grade school., Midwest Book Review, 1/1/16
