Tears Are Not Forever explains that crying has a purpose—to show others you may need help. This book can sooth an upset child, while also giving families positive language to use during stressful moments. A special section for caregivers reinforces the message that tears are a natural, normal response to strong emotions. Tips suggest ways to help toddlers handle big feelings at home and in childcare.
