Crying is Like the Rain: A Story of Mindfulness and Feelings
by Heather Hawk Feinberg (Author) and Chamisa Kellogg (Illustrator)

Booktalk: Is it possible we’ve misunderstood crying all along? That’s the discovery one big sister sets out to share with her little brother as they walk to school and get caught in a storm. Along the way they explore sadness, loneliness, fear, frustration, anger and more, through gentle metaphor. Their journey examines our tears revealing how they begin, why they happen, and what to do with them. Throughout the book, the message received is that we are safe in our emotional experiences and that feelings, like the weather, come and go.
