Joseph S. Renzulli, Jennifer L. Koehler, and Elizabeth A. Fogarty
After repeatedly observing the little boy crying on the school bus, Melanie, a fifth grader, took a seat next to him and struck up a conversation. “You don’t understand,” said Tony, a first grader whose face was practically hidden behind the thickest eyeglasses Melanie had ever seen. “You see these glasses? I’m partially sighted. The kids trip me and make fun of me. I have special books for my subjects, but there are no books in the library that I can read.”
