![]() ![]() ― School Library Journal With minimal text and a dozen illustrations, speaks volumes about how even the biggest and strongest men get sad sometimes and cry. ― Booklist A short and straightforward story that challenges the traditional notion that men shouldn't express their emotions.

These tough guys are rendered in simple lines and shapes and colored in black and white, red, blue, and yellow, but they represent a broad range of virility. ― The New York Times The title says it all.
