Customer Reviews

Cute characters, light hearted lesson

THis is a cute book for school age children - the large, colorful illustrations grab their attention and the rhyming text moves the story along. I bought this for my neice and nephew (ages 8 and 9) and they really enjoy it. Lleonard finds out that lying may seem funny but that it hurts "people" -- the other animals in the story. There is a Jiminy Cricket-like frog character, who helps present the moral, but it's not in a heavy-handed way. Good way to entertain kids and teach them about telling the truth too.

Good lesson for kids

Easy to read & for little ones to comprehend. Teaches a good lesson at an early age. recommended.
