Challenging at different levels
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
My 7 year old daughter and I have been reading these each night and she absolutely loves them. The stories are very short and the idea is to look for the "untruth" told in the story. There is something in the wording of the story that makes it a lie. I love the way it challenges my daughter to think beyond what is said and look at the words from a different angle. She (or I) don't get all of them, but we are getting better at them and will definitely try the "More True Lies" also by George Shannon.

I started reading some of these tales to my 5th grade students as a way to get their attention at the end of the school day. To my amazement, they loved them and kept asking for more. They were so inspired, that they've even come up with some tales of their own and I've had to look for more folktale books.
