    A very valuable resource for a growing group of people
  

*by K***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 2, 2016*

I have not yet finished the book myself, however my partner has and this is her review:"I found 'Misunderstood' really valuable and easy to read because it combines anecdotes from young people and practical support strategies based on Crossman's well-grounded research about the impact of growing up in multiple countries.The book is divided into sections that make it easy to dip in and read about specific situations e.g. what it's like if your family is engaged in international business or missionary or foreign service.  I was especially impressed by the discussion about how and why third culture kids suppress their emotions and how to support their emotional expression and growth.My partner went to 6 primary schools and lived in 17 houses whilst growing up in Australia and overseas.  'Misunderstood'  could have made a big difference for him and for his family.  So if you are planning an international career that will entail multiple family moves  I encourage you to read this book now."

    Great Resource and Insights
  

*by C***M on Reviewed in the United States on February 28, 2018*

My children are Third Culture Kids (TCKs) and this book provides valuable insight in understanding the challenges and joys that a child experiences while growing up outside of their "home" country.  As a parent, this book helps me to identify what my child may be going through and to recognize how their feelings and experiences differ from mine as well as how to validate and respect those feelings and help them navigate transitions.  I really appreciated the multiple interviews/feedback from children of different backgrounds (missionary/government/business/adoption) and the way the book is formatted to help identify the speakers point of view.  I read the book on Kindle but have since gotten a hard copy as well so I can easily revisit and add my notes - it's a great resource!

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ 4.0 out of 5 stars
