Prior to this time, Wheatherstone Press publications were only available in quantity sales to corporations and government agencies, for their relocating employees.We have received many special orders from bookstores and on-line booksellers to fill individual orders. We get requests to buy them from people who have read, or heard about the books from employees who received them from their employers.
So, we are now making them available to you, on this website, and they will be coming soon as a downloadable file.
These definitive guides detail how to manage your life and the activities of your move across town, across the country or across the world.
It is like having a life coach at your elbow.
Critically acclaimed, these reader-friendly books are like having personal consulting time with Jan Dickinson, the author, a recognized authority in the field of global relocation.
As Jan says, "We're going to be your new best friend."
Moving As A Single
Our guides are geared to singles as well as families. It is a difficult time because you have the responsibility of taking care of closing up everything in your current location. You will have to find housing in appropriate areas in your new location, get everything set up, and try to get back into the social mainstream without family support. All this, while starting a new job where they expect you to work long hours.
Our books tell you how to remove that stress.
Moving As A Family
Our important books are critical to take you through the maze you have ahead of you.
The Complete Guide To Family Relocation takes you step by step through everything in your move, in the order you will be faced with things. It has been called the 'Bible' of relocation by Bill Eppick, former Professional Placement Manager. It also had acclaim from a book review by the former Manager of Personnel Administration for General Mills.
Our books cover selling and buying or building a house, finding a rental, moving with pets and plants and kids, having a garage sale, saying good-bye, finding spouse employment and much, much more.
Surviving Outplacement helps smooth the way for those recently unemployed.
We even have a cook book with easy recipes tested for you by world-class eaters.
A daunting prospect of uprooting the children seems overwhelming. We guide you through the process of understanding and dealing with their feelings and needs. Be it the two-year old whose job it is to say "NO" or the teenage daughter who "WILL DIE" if she has to leave her friends, we offer suggestions and support to help you every step of the way.
Games To Play In The Car is not exclusively for moving and offers fun things to do when the video games need a break.
Selecting A New School And Daycare Facility is used by several school districts to design brochures for their newcomers.
We even have a move-explaining coloring book, We're Moving! - A Coloring Book.
Many more books are ready for you to review, and hopefully bring home, to take some of the "scary" out of your relocation.
International
The International Move provides you all the basic information you need to move to another country.
International Relocation Managers, including Carol Nakamoto, the Worldwide Relocation Manager of Hewlett-Packard Company reviewed it and heaped praise on this important publication.

When you have an understanding about the attitudes, traditions and business culture of a country, it makes your transition go more smoothly for the entire family.
We are continually developing new books for many additional countries, and if you don't find the one you are interested in listed as currently available, contact us, it is probably on the drawing board.
