Tear soup is a wonderfully illustrated children's book for adults, written about how we individually grieve the losses in our lives.

The story is about "Grandy," but she could be me or you. Grandy has suffered a loss, so she begins to make tear soup.

Tear soup cannot be just heated out of a can. It is an individual process, as unique as each chef. Only through the soup making are we able to fully heal and move on.

The full page illustrations and the text of the story show an even richer tale of the other people and pets in Grandy's life; howw they interact with her recipe. This book adds a powerful depth to an already touching story. You can't help but relate to your own life.
