My most recent book discovery is this one, a collection of anecdotes from a mother of crazy strange smart kids. It's fabulous!

Maybe if I turn this into a raving debate on what defines a "gifted" child, more people will read this and consequently buy the book.

Debate!

The only gifted thing my child has done lately has been to push enough buttons to cause me to wield the dreaded wooden spoon.

However, the title of the book looks interesting - and here is the info for those that are too shy to click on the link!

Ms. Isaacson ain't kidding - it's survival of the fittest out there . . . I hope I make it. (Phew)
