Today I’m speaking with Gloria and Peter van Donge about their series of picture books written especially for gifted kids.
In the episode you’ll hear:
- Gifted kids having very specific challenges that Gloria’s book
address:
- Loving to learn, being creative thinkers, emotional sensitivity
- Finding it hard to fit in
- Perfectionism, camouflaging behaviours
- The books are for parents, grandparents and teachers and come with resources to help you use them that are linked to the Australian curriculum & early years framework
- The books have been published in many countries and by councillors and psychologists
Hit play and let’s get started!
