Description
Lisette and her friend Bobbi the lizard have never told a lie. But they are eager to try-it might be fun! They tell Popof they are going for a trip to the mountains. When Popof decides to come too, they realize they'll have to make the mountain. A liar needs to improvise.
In this funny story about imaginative play with friends, Lisette's creativity and quick thinking make for a wonderful day out. Lisette's Lie gently explores the differences between storytelling and lies and the importance of good intentions.

"...delightfully droll. Her characters may have feathers, a tail and a trunk, but they sound and act like children we know." -- The New York Times "Bookwagon loves the charm and imagination of Lisette's Lie Then again, we love the imaginative play, the collaboration and the shape of the experience too." -- Bookwagon, UKMore details
