Welcome to TCK Resources!

This website is designed to be a collection of resources for Third Culture Kids (TCKs): those individuals who have spent a large amount of their childhood in a culture different than that of their parents, and so develop a sense of belonging to both cultures. This includes Missionary Kids, Military Brats, children of business people or diplomats, or any other expat family.

We have organized these resources in a way that makes it easy to find something relevant to you, whether you’re a parent or teacher of TCKs or a TCK yourself. You can filter and search for just the book (or video, movie, etc) you want by intended audience, genre, topic, and location.

Looking for a picture book that explains cultural differences to your kids? A comprehensive guide to raising a Third Culture family? Or maybe a novel about a TCK who balances the grief of leaving with the excitement of starting something new? Just curious what stories or memoirs have been written about TCKs?  Whatever you are hoping to find, click below to start your search!

Please note: We are still in process!  We have already added lots of children’s books and older books but still have many resources and TCK memoirs to add. So please be patient if you can’t find exactly what you’re looking for yet. Check back periodically to see what’s new, or suggest a book you think should be on our site!

Here are some of our all time favorites:
