The Fibbing Giraffe : (A hilarious book that teaches pre-school kids about honesty) by David White

Why Do Kids Lie? Apart from trying to cover up their mischief and “oopsies”, kids are also experimenting with their imagination. If you think about it, lying takes a lot of work! You have to understand that the person you’re lying to doesn’t “know what you know”... And then you have to use creativity and brain-power to conjure a story that makes sense! There’s a lot of mental work that goes into lying. So when your kiddo first starts to tell lies, it’s a sign that he or she is getting smarter! BUT there are things you can do as a parent to prevent lying as a bad habit. Our favorite way? Stories. Everyone loves stories. It’s hardwired into our brains. If you don’t...are you an alien? Heck, aliens probably love stories too! Anyways, research shows that stories with positive endings and anti-fibbing themes promoted greater levels of honesty. And that’s exactly what you’re getting with The Fibbing Giraffe. Throughout this entire hilarious and beautifully illustrated 20+ page book… Your little one will see how the loveable Giraffe character fibs without thinking about the consequences. And the “strange” circumstances he faces when he fibs a little TOO much… But most importantly, how he realizes the importance of honesty by the end. This is the perfect “edutaining” story for preschool kids ages (3-7). Introduce The Fibbing Giraffe in your next story-time session with your little ones!
