About This Book
Reach for this book when your child feels like their emotions are too big, too frequent, or out of place. It is an essential choice for children who are often told they are too sensitive or who struggle with the social stigma of crying in front of peers. Through the story of Milton the bull, the book validates that crying is a natural expression of many feelings, not just sadness. While the story follows a bull who tries to act tough to hide his tears, it ultimately moves toward a beautiful message of self-acceptance and the joy of finding a like-minded friend. It is perfect for preschoolers and early elementary students (ages 4-8) who are navigating social hierarchies and learning that vulnerability is a strength rather than a weakness.
