Description
Peter and his friends want to share their great discovery with you. We don't only cry when we're sad! This enthusiastic team of young scientists sets up a laboratory in a garage to study tears, and all the different things they can be used for. They are about to become explorers, in a sea of emotions.

Reviews
A picture book full of delicacy and sensitivity that will make us see tears from another perspective. It reminds us of all the things worth crying about. A story that validates all emotions. Crying is a way of expressing what we feel and that we all have the right to cry. --Apegoyliteratura
Beautifully illustrated TEN TEARS AND ONE EMBRACE conveys the importance of tears to express different emotions. Readers will explore the different types of tears, often not related to sadness. --Infantilandia
