What changed suddenly, turning the rivers of tears of sadness on his cheeks into tears of joy?

The series: To ensure children have a healthy social life based on effective relationships, they need to cultivate empathy, the ability to put themselves in others' shoes, to understand and feel things in the same way another person experiences them. This need is addressed by the illustrated books of this series, which promote emotional intelligence.
