| Description: |
Written by Etta Kralovec and John Buell, this book discusses the adverse effects of homework, and raises questions on whether it contributes to a child's intellectual development, its impact on family life, and whether valuable experiences are being lost to homework. Useful to parents whose profoundly gifted children are in the public school system. |
