    If you're living abroad with kids - this is the book for you. It helped me understand exactly what my kids (and myself) were going through. Skip Expert Expat & read this one twice! Great to have handy on the bookshelf.

    Book about how to help kids in a different culture. John liked it, I am more depressed by it. I am not done with it though.

    This is an extremely well-written book dealing with a number of unique difficulties faced by American children who spend a significant amount of time outside the US. It gave me a lot of things to consider when it comes to parenting my daughters through those challenges.
