At heart a go-and-return story, Lau reflects on the difficulties of adjusting to the different practices of teaching and learning in two places with their own distinctive cultures. Ever more prescient now amid the current social and political upheavals in Hong Kong and around the world, the book considers the profound impacts such transitions have on families. By delving into the challenges of living, working, and learning across cultures, he reflects upon the deep-rooted values in both family and school landscapes to gain new insights about educational and cultural practices in Hong Kong and Toronto.\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eChun-Kwok Lau\u003c\/b\u003e was a Senior Lecturer in the Department of Curriculum and Instruction at The Education University of Hong Kong.
