Manifesto of the Gifted Girl reaches out to girls and women in all walks of life and in every kind of circumstance. It strengthens, inspires, and counsels those who are struggling to find their place in school and society, as well as those who are venturing out on their own for the first time. Framed with the voices of the girls themselves, the book is conversational in style and is written so that both girls and young women can gain strength and hope from the messages contained within its pages. This is an important book that will help advocates (parents, older friends, mentors) understand and support gifted girls. It is beautifully illustrated with images of women and girls in art and history.
