What Others are Saying About the Book!"Overall, I love this story. Truly I believe this is a beautiful story confronting the expression of emotions, the role of the father, and so much more. I love it"
-Loren Gina "Daddy is it okay to cry by Detario Yancey, is a story that highlights the difficult social truths surrounding some of life’s biggest emotions; grief and loss. Told through the life-like dialogues of a son and father, Yancey’s tale gently untangles the harsh social norms that often get unintentionally placed on our children by well-meaning adults and drives home a poignant message to all ages; “It is okay to feel!” In a world filled with so much anger, fear, and misplaced emotions-“Daddy is it okay to cry?”, gives the reader hope that the next generation will be equipped with the emotional intelligence needed to thrive. I strongly recommend this book for all teachers, guidance counselors, and families looking to support their child’s emotional well-being!" -Elizabeth Luster "This book is a beautiful deep dive into the the brain of adolescent children as they begin to struggle with emotions and circumstances as they grow. This book demonstrates to children of all genders that all emotions are okay to feel. It is a gentle reminder that feelings are okay no matter who you are.” -Paloma Diaz |
