A Home Here, There: Story Of Belonging Across Cultures

What does it mean to belong to more than one place? A Home Here, A Home There: A Story of Belonging Across Cultures follows Ellie, a young girl growing up in the United States with Israeli roots, as she learns to navigate two cultures, two languages, and two places she can call home. Through Ellie's thoughts, memories, longings, and everyday experiences, the story gently explores what it can feel like to grow up between worlds - missing one home while learning to belong in another. Created especially for Third Culture Kids (TCKs), Cross-Cultural Kids (CCKs), multicultural and bilingual families, and children experiencing relocation, this heartfelt story offers children words for feelings that are not always easy to explain. More than a story about moving, it is a story about identity, connection, memory, and belonging - and about discovering that loving one home does not mean letting go of another. A meaningful book for families, classrooms, educators, and therapeutic settings, designed to open conversations about questions such as: Where is home? What do we carry with us? And can our hearts belong to more than one place? A warm and thoughtful story for every child growing up between cultures - and for every adult helping them find their own sense of belonging.
