Customer Reviews

A fun and pretty book to read

The illustrations and the intriguing title attracted me to this book. The story is a little strange and I worried it might scare the kids, but it didn't. So we use this story to tease the kids about the Tear Thief coming when they start to get fussy. The kids seem to really enjoy this book, and the illustrations are very pretty.
