Wonderful Resources!!!! Must Read

Last weekend I had the wonderful opportunity to hear Dr. Rimm speak. I was in awe listening to what she had to say about gifted children. Every other sentence she spoke I was internally whooping , "I know a kid who thinks like that! I know I kid who acts like that! I know parents who'd love to hear this!" 

I've included in this post, a list of articles on her site that you would love to read. I've also included a picture of one of her books. Though the topic might not pertain to you or your child, others will benefit from reading it. 

"Dr. Rimm is a welcome voice of calm and reason— someone who offers practical advice, with almost immediate results. She’s a guardian angel for families who need a little or a lot of guidance." — says Katie Couric, former NBC Today show host.
