Reach for this book when your child is caught in a fib or has presented an elaborate, creative explanation for a missing toy or a broken rule. While it begins as a lushly illustrated adventure about a bear wandering into the city for a snack, it is actually a clever exploration of perspective and the art of the 'tall tale.' As a psychologist, I appreciate how this story handles the concept of honesty with a light touch. It allows children to see the humor in their own creative excuses without feeling shamed. It is a perfect choice for preschool and early elementary children who are beginning to navigate the social nuances of accountability and imagination. You will choose this for the gorgeous, impressionistic art and the 'aha!' moment that invites a playful conversation about what really happened.
