Synopsis
In this modern-day fable, a woman who has suffered a terrible loss cooks up a special batch of tear soup, blending the unique ingredients of her life into the grief process. Along the way she dispenses a recipe of sound advice for people who are in mourning., The award-winning, bestselling children's book is now available as a video, narrated by the nationally-known Mary McDonald-Lewis. In this modern-day fable, a woman who has suffered a terrible loss cooks up a special batch of "tear soup," blending the unique ingredients of her life into the grief process. Along the way she dispenses a recipe of sound advice for people who are in mourning or know someone who has suffered a loss. The video was created by filming the richly-illustrated pages from the book and adding narration and an original score. Together these two resources present a profound message in a sublime way for children, as well as people of all ages. The video provides a new way to offer the helpful messages of Tear Soup to those who have suffered a loss. An appendix in the book contains a helpful listing of grief support groups for a variety of situations. Grief counselors and ministers of many denominations have found Tear Soup a helpful book for those in the first stages of mourning.

    Great Seller. Honest and attentive. Package arrived in time frame mentioned. Responded to my question within hours just to let me know she did not have measurements immediately but remembered to let me know later that night with a picture of the item next to a ruler . The socks are in perfect brand new condition. Came packaged in a plastic bag and smell nice like they were kept with a scented packet. Thank you!

    Perfect For Anyone Suffering A Loss

    Although this appears to be a childrens book it is relavent to anyone of any age going through grief not only from death, but divorce or any major life event. I bought it as it was recommended to me by my grief therapist. The authors obviously know what they are talking about and puts it in simple to understand plain language hence it is good for kids too. In todays world everything is about doing everything fast, don't dwell on the past hurry, hurry, hurry. This applies to people suffering loss the most. People assume that within a month you should basically be over things and on to life. Yippeee right? NOT! When you lose a significant person in your life it tells you things will never be the same which is true. Your world has changed but tells you it is ok to cry, and grieve as ...

  • Must have for the classroom

    When I was first starting teaching, I joined several facebook groups where experienced teachers advised novices on "must haves" for the classroom. I eagerly bought a bunch of the stuff. Some of those items have never been used. This book is not one of them. Every year, there is at least one student or coworker who suffers a terrible loss, and I give them a copy of this book from my classroom library. It is always well accepted. I knew it was a success when a student who could barely read told me she had read it 3 times in the week I gave it to her. I always keep a couple of these handy for emergencies. I even have it in Spanish.

  • Excellent Book

    I highly recommend this book, to everyone. I used this book for many years, for myself and my children. I now us it fromThe Fallen Butterfly Project For Grief and Loss support class. It's a great book for Children and Adults. I'm considering order a case to always keep and hand out in my support group.

  • A Beautiful and Helpful Book

    Grief is hard, real hard. Many of us are told how to grieve, expected to get over it, etc., etc.. Books are recommended yet most have way too many words for the newly bereaved. This book looks to be a children's book and it CAN be, however the message is really for adults. Pat and Chuck let us see that how one grieves is a personal thing. Using the metaphor of tear soup, we see that Grandy makes a stronger broth than her husband, and she works to realize that is okay. A friend stops by and tells Grandy how to go about this grief thing. She's ushered to the door. Another friend allows her to be. The illustrations are compelling. Look for the Bassett Hound... He's there for everything. I am a hospital chaplain and have had the honor of being able to give this book to newly bereaved ...

  • Well written and drawn! Sensitive but practical!

    To quote a recent widow to whom I gave the book, "I forgot to tell you how much I liked the book! The drawings are wonderful! I think it's well suited to people whose grief isn't 'brand new' but have had time to live a bit of life post-loss. The allegory is sensitively developed." I agree with her about waiting a little while (a few weeks?) before offering the book to the person. Helpful as the information is, they probably need time to process their loss on their own before being given a "how to" book, good as it is. It is far more than a "how to" book, for sure, but at the beginning the person is faced with physical details to take care of beyond the funeral - bank accounts, insurance stuff, and other things that must be done. Giving the person some space before giving them the ...
