Book excerpt: This book presents several original studies of artistically talented children and their less-talented peers. The focus is on the spontaneous drawings children produce and on the types of compositions children generate when given materials to compose. Milbrath's model of artistic talent attributes individual differences to the figurative abilities of talented children, and her theory is richly supported by original examples of children's artwork.
