«La ladrona de lágrimas» is the children's fantasy tale by Carol Ann Duffy, published by Editorial Vicens Vives in paperback (48 pages, in Spanish).
Every night, between dinner and bedtime, an invisible thief travels through houses with a silver sack on her shoulder and steals the tears of crying children. The story asks what she does with those tears and why she especially values those born of sadness, an invitation to talk about emotions.
Illustrated by Nicoletta Ceccoli, translated by Adolfo Muñoz García and published as number 22 of the Piñata Collection; original title: The Tear Thief.
Recommended for early primary readers, from about 6 years old, and useful for working on emotional education at home or in the classroom.
