This interactive book for teens (especially older teens) gives practical advice on things like getting organized for moving, packing, getting established in a new school, and making new friends. Activities for this age group including checklists, places to journal about feelings, space to note different greetings, gestures and phrases for the new country, and pages for regular and e-mail addresses. The first section of the book is for any move, and parts of it will not apply to those moving overseas (though it may be appropriate for those returning to the U.S.), but the second section is very helpful for moving to a new country. The book also has two plastic pouches for holding papers, and a sheet of packing labels.
