101 Success Secrets for Gifted Kids : The Ultimate Handbook by Christine Fonseca (2011, Paperback)

Our school collection currently does not have a single resource like this one that is especially for students. Many times I have heard some of the gifted students say that they wish they had a better program outside of their regular courses. The purpose of this handbook would be to provide those students with something they can relate to, and something that continues to motivate them. This book has received positive reviews from School Library Journal and was written by Fonseca, who focuses on writing fiction and nonfiction titles for late adolescence.

Dialogue bubbles and text boxes help the visuals. One source noted there was no index, but that it does have web and print resources.
