Mom Says, Dad Says, Nat Says: Other -- A Book for Anyone Daring to be Different

Have you ever been the odd one out? Perhaps, simply misunderstood or boxed in to some role you were not interested in playing? Unfortunately, you are not alone. A lot of people don't always fit in. They may look different, or they may just feel different. And many times that is a good thing. Being different can push us to think outside the box, to resist peer pressure, to find our own path in life, to discover what only we can become.

Daring to be Different is Not Easy

To be different, however, is not easy. To succeed you need to know the ABC's of belonging, how to outwit difficult people with a big heart, and do so with laughter.

Gain an Edge by Understanding Group Differences

'Other,' explores the psychology of group differences; how they help or hinder individuals to find their way in life. The book is written for busy adults and curious kids who do not fit neatly into one category.

The Book "Other" Shows Us How To:

  • Discover you are an 'other' or different from those around you
  • Develop surprising and fun coping strategies for being an 'other'
  • Create your own rules of the game to become something bigger
