Hey, I'm a tough guy, I can't cry! (can I?)

Sometimes explaining emotions - or even just dealing with them - is tricky and complex.  Just like this little picture book, which is full of depth and tenderness in just a few pages.  The emotional strength and impact of this book comes from the artwork.  Bright, bold colors and simple text engage the mind and imagination.  Meanwhile, the subtle and telling images speak to readers in a universally understood way.  These elements join together to teach little ones that being a tough guy or a super hero doesn't mean you can't feel emotions.  In fact; sometimes feeling is the strongest thing of all.
