- Reviewed in the United States on January 23, 2022This book follows the journey of Stephen, a third-culture kid, as his family moves back to the USA after many years of living in Papua New Guinea as missionaries. The author, Simeon, cares deeply that kids see their story represented in media, and The Long Flight Home does just that by giving a glimpse into the tangled emotions of a third-culture/missionary kid.
I definitely recommend this book for any young adults, and I also think this is an excellent book for families of returned missionaries.
- Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2022This book kept my attention as an adult but I would have loved it as a teen. I think I would have found it encouraging as I tried to maneuver through those tricky years of development. Despite it's focus on missionary kids the themes are universal as the main character explores friendship, dating, peer pressures, the ups and downs of being an athlete and family dynamics. Bonus -- I like the eye catching cover art!
- Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2022As one who experienced many of the author’s stories firsthand, I was drawn into the authentic ways he wove his narrative. Since my own move from PNG, continually find myself in conversation with MKs and TCKs who share Stephen’s story in many ways. I now have a book I’d happily give them to assist them on their own journey of self discovery.
It is well written with relatable characters that are filled with grace and hope.
- Reviewed in the United States on January 13, 2022I had the privilege of reading it in it's beta stage and highly recommend it. It captures and articulates well the challenges many missionary kids and third culture kids experience in transition. It would be a great read for students in transition but would also be an insightful read for other teens and adults who come alongside them in transition in their church or classroom or parents looking for ways to generate conversation with their kids in transition.
