Archibald Frisby, by Michael Chesworth, is the story of a boy who loves science and reading. He was interested in things that were different from the other children at school so he often explored and played by himself. Then his mom decides that he needs to go to camp so he can do the things that a normal child does. He was still into the same science activities when he went to camp but he found ways to share his expertise with the other campers and they began to love him!
This is a great book for gifted and talented students because Archibald is a great example of being different and staying true to himself, and eventually he is understood and respected by his peers.
