Description
Who hasn't told a fib or two? Whether trying to spare someone feelings or get out of a whole heap of trouble, everyone bends the truth now and then. But lying is usually a way of avoiding the types of everyday conflicts that people have to deal with throughout their lives. This book will help kids deal straight up with conflict and lying, whether they have lied, been lied to, or witnessed others struggling to tell the truth.
