Any bookworm knows that though it's a thrill to work your way through to the end of a book, there's always a hint of sadness as you turn the final page and close the back cover, leaving the story behind. For this little guy, it's taken less than a year for him to realize how truly sad the ending of a good book can be, and he's not afraid to cry about it — every time.

In the video, the tiny tot is being read to by his mama — in a very appropriate "The Struggle Is Real" onesie — and every time she concludes the book with a lighthearted "the end," he totally loses his composure. It's both adorable and heartbreaking, so the urge to watch the video over and over despite his traumatic fight against endings seems wrong but ultimately wins out. We promise you'll watch this one a few times.
