Short Summary for Stress Children & Bullying Effects:   Mom Says, Dad Says, Nat Says: Other 

This entertaining illustrated health series reads much like St. Exupery’s The Little Prince, but with a different message. Other is about the art of being different, what we wished our Mom had told us, what our Dad may not have known, and what our own head and heart might still have difficulty grasping. Unless, like the characters in the book, your Mom has a European ‘savoir vivre’ that is larger than life, your Dad is a Zen Japanese Harvard trained psychiatrist on health, and you like the American author Nat, have spent years trying to integrate both your mom’s heart and your dad’s head.  A must to read as your child follows his or her heart.  Effective in countering unwanted bullying effects.

Short Summary for Happa, Ameriasian, Nisei, Eurasian:  Mom Says, Dad Says, Nat Says: Other 

Dad is Japanese. Mom is French. Nat, she is a Happa, Ameriasian, Nisei, Eurasian or more simply put an ‘Other’. This heartwarming entertaining book shows us how to enjoy growing up as an ‘Other.’ Through surprising and highly effective strategies Nat shows us how to enjoy an identity crisis, a different physical appearance (Nat had spent hours pinching her nose to make it less flat with little success), language (looking Japanese did not mean Nat spoke it fluently), a strange sounding name, and how to deal with racism from all ethnic groups including your own — if you are lucky enough that such a category exists.  A must to counter bullying effects and cope with stress children experience as they define and re-define their identity.
