Abstract	The "Research in Practice Series" is published four times each year by Early Childhood Australia. The series aims to provide practical, easy to read, up-to-date information and support to a growing national readership of early childhood workers. The books bring together the best information available on wide-ranging topics and are an ideal resource for children's services workers and others interested in the care and education of young children. Well-known psychologist and educator Louise Porter provides an updated, revised edition of her previous book of the same title, outlining a range of strategies for those seeking to meet the needs of young gifted children. A comprehensive list with indicators of advanced development provides a ready tool for the initial stages of the identification of giftedness, prior to formal testing. Sections covering the emotional and social needs of this group and how to adjust educational programs to provide appropriate challenges make this a very useful resource for early childhood professionals. Collaboration with parents is also emphasized. This book is a must for all services and will also greatly assist parents of gifted children. The content is as follows: (1) Introduction; (2) Definitions; (3) Identification of Giftedness; (4) Educational Provisions; (5) Emotional and Social Needs; (6) Collaboration with Parents; (7) References; (8) Suggested Further Reading; and (9) Appendix I (Indicators of Advanced Development in Young Children).
