Victorian writer Andrew Kelly's book Cry Hard Chucky has been commended for its themes of resilience, empathy, and positive father-son relationships.

Cry Hard Chucky , the debut children's book by Victorian playwright Andrew Kelly , is encouraging young readers to express their emotions.Mr Kelly hopes his book will find its way into school libraries throughout Australia and spark thoughtful conversations about wellbeing.

"But figures back up that this is not the case and for men, keeping our emotions inside us can be the cause of bigger problems."In 2019, not-for-profit Movember surveyed 4,000 men from Australia, United Kingdom, Canada and the USA about masculinity and how it affects their behaviour. He said it was important to start the conversation about wellbeing early so boys were able to find constructive ways of dealing with their feelings.

He now hopes the book will find its way into as many educational settings as possible and continue to spark discussion about its themes."I feel there is room for this book in every school in Australia."Is crying good for you?On a patch of earth 'big as a Bunnings car park', renters get to muscle in on the solar boomPeople in Australia's crystal meth underworld have a code of silence.
