Description: A small boy creates a shelter for his sadness so that he can visit it whenever he needs to, and the two of them can cry, talk, or just sit. The boy knows that one day his sadness may come out of the shelter, and together they will look out at the world and see how beautiful it is.

Review Quotes: "Booth and Litchfield propose not only accepting sadness, but actually trying to take care of it by building a shelter and keeping it safe. . . . The art work is simple but evocative, in an atmospheric palette befitting the story's content. This would be an excellent conversation starter for readers who are grappling with strong emotions or for lessons on SEL."--School Library Journal
