Once upon a Time, there was a little boy who cried all the time. Whenever he had a bruise or a problem, tears would fill his big eyes and run down his cheek. Meanwhile, a little boy does not cry, adults said. You will never become a real man. Take a look at your friend, Little Sun. He stopped crying since a long while now..

The crying little boy is an African tale of self development, for children, adults and parents. For children, because it helps them to grow up by learning to love themselves; for adults, because it helps them to heal the wounds of childhood that are sometimes created by love expressed in the wrong way; and for parents, because they have to learn to hold their children's hands, so that they can love themselves and become fulfilled adults.

The illustrations by young Cameroonian illustrator Oswald Seulle immerse us in the half-traditional, half-modern African world, in a warm, good-natured atmosphere.
