Rhinos Don't Cry by Mark Grist introduces us to Milo, a rhino who enjoys all sorts of rhino-y activities. He has a passion for writing, climbing, banister-sliding, mountain bike riding, painting, and singing. Milo truly loves being a rhino—however, there's a slight dilemma... rhinos don't cry.

At least, that's what his movie-star hero, Spike-O Mcree, always insists. However, when Milo meets Spike-O in person, he discovers that not only is crying acceptable, but it's also very brave!

This energetic and engaging rhyming story is the first in a series of books focusing on the significance of children expressing their feelings.

Mark Grist is a multi-award-winning poet and international battle rapper with over 40 million views for his poetry and rap videos online.
