At first glance, Marie s Big Adieu looks just like the many other children s titles that line a bookstore. It has the right size, the right font, colors galore, and story length. Nevertheless, after falling into the pages of Marie s Big Adieu you d be hard-pressed not to wonder what it is about this particular book that moves something within you not just as a reader, adult or child, but as a human being. - --Writer Mum's The story is very relatable for young kids who face the realities of packing their bags and leaving behind friends, families and the place that until then was home. But the books shows them that in these turbulent times there will lie opportunity too. Eventually they will find new friends (and that doesn't mean they forget their old friends), new places to discover and most of all lots of fun to have. I particularly liked the rhymes and beautiful, vivid illustrations. Great farewell gift for kids between 3-7 years or also recommended for parents who want to prepare their kids for a big move. As a coach for Third Culture Kids I would definitely use this book with some of my young clients to start a conversation. - --Littlenomadscoaching About the Author Tamara Rittershaus is a kid lit author and freelance editor, specializing in picture books and poetry, an expat mom, and Montessori kindergarten teacher.
