How to teach my child not to lie...“The truth may hurt for a little while, but a lie can hurt forever.” - Unknown
This week’s Friday Read’s recommendation is Princess K.I.M and the Lie That Grew’ by Maryann Cocca-Leffler Blurb: Kim wants the kids at her new school to like her, so she tells a teeny, tiny, bitty lie. She says her name is really "K.I.M."--for "Katherine Isabella Marguerite"--and that she comes from a royal family! Pretty soon all the students know there is a princess in the school. Kim wears her golden tiara from dance class and a big fancy ring she won at the arcade. Her little lie grows and grows. When a classmate invites her to a birthday party, Kim says she can't go because her grandmother is coming to visit. But she had told the kids her grandmother was a queen. Now they all want to meet the queen. Kim is in a real bind; her lie has grown too big and it's about ready to explode! Check it out here.
