A poem is set to paintings to create the dramatically intense world of this hardcover picture book. We follow the journey of a tear that falls into a teacup, eventually finding its way out to sea. Finally, it falls as rain and drives a young boy into the arms of his beloved grandfather.

A learner's guide makes this an inspiring resource for teachers and art therapists.
