4.0 out of 5 stars
Good ideas for expatriates relocating kids, August 23, 2007
This review is from: Where in the World Are You Going? (Paperback)
I received this book out of the blue from our Global Mobility people who are co-ordinating my relocation from Australia to the UK. It's been well received by my kids who have enjoyed working through it.
The process it follows feels right, and though there were no new concepts (we had talked about many of the issues it raises with our kids), it does present them in a clear and organised way that makes it worthwhile.
Although I was given this book, I've since recommended it to several people. My biggest advice is get more than one! You'll need one for each kid to avoid arguments, although we dealt with that by "sharing" pages.
My only criticisms are that it does feel a little old fashioned, so doesn't really acknowledge much in the way of modern technology which would form a useful update to the book, particularly if you were using it with older children.
For reference, my kids are currently 5 and 6.
