This book describes how popular culture, classroom and home environments can shut down the genius of children. Author Thomas Armstrong urges readers to look beyond traditional understandings of what constitutes genius and describes 12 such qualities: curiosity, playfulness, imagination, creativity, wonder, wisdom, inventiveness, vitality, sensitivity, flexibility, humor, and joy. |
