Features: The authors, who hold multiple identities as journalists, parents of gifted children, and researchers of prodigies, present an in-depth yet accessible account of case studies on gifted children and research findings in gifted education to a broad readership. Through nearly two decades of dedicated research, personal practice, and tracking investigations, they share insights into over a dozen cases of gifted children. In challenging circumstances, the authors nurtured their daughter into a gifted child with an IQ exceeding 160, who was admitted to university at the age of 15. In this book, the authors analyze the key factors contributing to the early educational success of their daughter and other gifted children, offering valuable inspiration and assistance to countless parents who aspire to see their children excel. They also summarize some memorable experiences and lessons learned. Research indicates that appropriate education during early childhood, particularly in infancy, can increase a child's IQ by 30 points. In other words, emphasizing early education means that even if your child cannot become a "prodigy," they may still become exceptionally. Therefore, in this sense, this book is undoubtedly a highly valuable reference for parents, educators, and related researchers.
