Description

Everyone’s got a story to tell. If your story involves growing up among different cultures – either moving between them or having them move around you – then read this book. Growing up and transitioning cross-culturally can present unexpected challenges and bestow surprising skills. It is a book of adventures to help identify some of those challenges and use some of those skills in your own life – which is very important because you have got more to contribute to the world than you realize.
