About This Book
Reach for this book when your child starts coming home with wild, improbable explanations for their behavior or when you want to celebrate their budding storytelling skills without turning every fib into a lecture. It is a playful exploration of the thin line between lying and imaginative play, perfect for children who process their world through elaborate 'what if' scenarios. The story follows David, a boy who is perpetually late for school and offers his teacher increasingly absurd excuses involving lions, wolves, and giant birds. While David's teacher remains skeptical, the book validates the joy of a creative mind. It provides a gentle opening to discuss the importance of punctuality and honesty, while reassuring children that their inner world of adventure is a gift to be shared, not suppressed.
