About This Book
Reach for this book when your child is facing their first internal battle with temptation or the visible evidence of a tiny mistake. It is the perfect tool for children who might feel overwhelmed by a small lapse in judgment and need a gentle, humorous way to navigate the road to honesty. The story follows a young boy dressed as a sheriff who, despite his best intentions, cannot resist eating a powdered donut he was supposed to be guarding. The charm of the book lies in its realistic portrayal of how guilt manifests: not as a heavy burden, but as a series of funny, nervous attempts to cover one's tracks. Parents will appreciate the lighthearted approach to accountability, showing that while we all make mistakes, the truth eventually comes out (often in the form of powdered sugar on our noses). It is a warm, non-judgmental entry point for discussing integrity with preschoolers and early elementary students.
