Emma is only ten years old, but has already moved twice. Now, her
parents are telling her the family is moving again. She's furious,
sad, nervous, and a little excited, all at the same time. Unsure of
how to tackle these conflicting emotions, she turns to B, her
faithful teddy bear. While trying to come to terms with the
challenges of another move, what Emma really wants is just to 'be
at home'. As the journeys of Emma and B unfold, home changes once
again, but home also begins to take on a new meaning that Emma can
take with her wherever she goes. "In this delightful book you have
the solution for how to translate what we, as adults, know about
the TCK experience, into language and concepts that children who
grow up globally can relate to. This book offers clear strategies
for parents, educators, others who work with TCKs, and the TCKs
themselves, on practical ways to translate theory into practices to
help children navigate the chronic cycles of separation inherent in
a TCK's childhood." Ruth E. Van Reken, Co-author, Third Culture
Kids: Growing Up Among Worlds, Co-founder, Families in Global
Transition, www.FIGT.org "Beautifully written, B at Home: Emma
Moves Again is a must for parents, teachers and organizations that
support global nomads. Adults who work with families in global
transition will find it added to their 'go to shelf'. Tidbits such
as ' ... home will never ever be one place. It will be constantly
moving. Like the waves, like the beads in the kaleidoscope' has
made this one of my favorite books " Julia Simens, Author,
Emotional Resilience and the Expat Child: practical storytelling
techniques that will strengthen the global family "This is a book
that will help children and their parents (and stuffed animals )
with any transition or move. "Dr Lisa Pittman, Co-author, Expat
