The Fib
A boy’s little white lie takes on a big green life of its own in this wise picture book about the snowballing consequences of dishonesty. Pepe is self-conscious about bringing the comic book he drew for show-and-tell; at the last minute, he lies, inventing a special pet that comes to life with his words. As he tells more lies to cover his tracks, his pet, the Fib, grows larger and larger, until the only thing left to do is tell the truth.
