Product Description
Dividing the population of talented and creative children into two distinctive categories, gifted and highly gifted, Tara Stuart and Audrey Beste offer I Always Knew I Was Different as a key for anyone interested in learning more about children who don't fit the mold. Through their own experiences and collaboration, they utilize case studies and stories, composed by parents, teachers and even young adults themselves, as a means of bringing their story to life. A banquet of impressions and concepts, their book seeks to provide the reader with a recognition, understanding and appreciation of gifted and highly gifted children. Hoping to reach a wide audience with their work, the studies and stories are not restricted by a medical or therapeutic format, but written to be read and understood by the general public. Interwined with the level of general coherence are the works of field professionals, thus providing the psychology of the gifted and highly gifted, yet presenting it in a manner so that any reader can understand the distinction. Stuart and Beste felt that their own research and experiences were of a level too profound to be kept out of general view, having a knowledge that could benefit parents, teachers, friends, families and professionals who work with gifted and highly gifted children. There existed a keen understanding between them of how that extra assignment, a busy work task, frustrated comment or action is not what the gifted child needs. These children, instead, as well as their adult counterparts, have a responsibility for their gifts and talents in relationship to both themselves and others. I Always Knew I Was Different explores how best to take that responsibility and face the challenges of living life in association with, or as, a gifted individual.
