The Berenstain Bears

This is a great book! It teaches about lying but in a funny way. One of the lines paraphrased says that "and they cubs told the biggest whopper ever told in Bear County." That always gets a laugh in our house - "whopper" is quite funny to a toddler! But after you explain it, it has a new meaning and really provides a way to explain lying. This book has brother and sister playing ball in the house when they're not supposed to and wind up breaking mama's favorite lamp. Then, they lie about it and lose mama's trust. After they apologize, they don't do it again but they learn that they have to regain their mother's trust in their word all over again. It's a fantastic book to teach about lying and the results thereof.

I highly recommend this book -it's read almost nightly in our house.by Carolyn,Columbus,Ohio
