Reach for this book when you notice your child struggling with the impulse to hide a mistake or when they need a concrete understanding of what integrity looks like in everyday moments. Rather than focusing on punishment, this guide uses relatable, real-life scenarios to show how honesty creates a sense of pride and safety. It covers various aspects of being truthful, from admitting to a broken toy to following game rules even when no one is watching. It is a gentle, supportive way to introduce the concept of trust to preschoolers and early elementary students. By using photographs of real children, the book makes the abstract concept of honesty feel attainable and normal. It is an ideal choice for parents who want to move beyond 'don't lie' and toward 'being honest feels good.'
