Summary
The truth may be sacred, but many people-both children and adults- think lying is easier. Some people lie so often that it becomes a habit-a very bad habit-that reduces their own sense of self-esteem and makes others not trust them. In a clear and easy to understand narrative, Dr. Moser discusses the problems of lying and the importance of telling the truth. He offers thoughtful examples and suggests ways that can help children tell the truth. Dr. Moser’s text is informative, entertaining, witty, and easy to read. David Melton’s illustrations are outstanding. They are bright and clever, and often hilarious. Children are sure to love this book. Parents are bound to appreciate its common-sense approach. And teachers and counselors will recognize this book as a valuable tool for affecting the lives of children in positive ways.
