Any good books on parenting gifted children?

[kindacrunchy]

My hubby and I are pretty convinced that our son is extremely intelligent. He is super creative, sweet, sensitive, busy, and intense. We are having some challenges with him and are wondering if there are any good books about parenting a gifted child.
Thanks!

I like sylvia rimm as an author she's got a few books on gifted kids and navigating other people/schools..

Here are a few that are sitting on my shelf:
1. Guiding the Gifted Child
2. Helping Gifted Children Soar
3. Raising Achievers
4. GENIUS DENIED
5. Dumbing us Down
6. Coloring Outside the Lines
7. The Educated Child
8. Misdiagnosis add bipolar ocs aspergers depression and other disorders - i use this as a guide to see what others may think they see in my child.... keep in mind gifted can present itself as many other things.... ;(


i am always looking to expand my collection...
generally the selection at bookstores is very limited so i order online or ebay/half.com...

Creative Homeschooling: A Resource Guide for Smart Families by Lisa Rivero
- this is a great resource even if you choose not to homeschool

Bringing out the Best: A Guide for Parents of Young Gifted Children by Jacquelyn Saunders
- OOP, but readily available

I second the recommendation of Coloring Outside the Lines, though the author drove me a bit nuts with his repeated references to getting somewhere in the world. Too utilitarian for me. That said, he does have some great ideas.
