Lisette's Lie

“Catharina Valckx stories come straight from a child’s day, wrapping play, friendship, jokes and testing limits into perfect vignettes that always have greater meaning.” 

Julia Marshall, Publisher

A springtime fresh picture book about a good day out with friends—climbing mountains, swimming and singing—and the difference between storytelling and lies.Lisette and her friend Bobbi the lizard have never told a lie. But they are eager to try—it might be fun! They tell Popof they are going for a trip to the mountains. When Popof decides to come too, they realize they’ll have to make the mountain. A liar needs to improvise. In this funny story about imaginative play with friends, Lisette’s creativity and quick thinking make for a wonderful day out. Lisette’s Lie gently explores the differences between storytelling and lies and the importance of good intentions.
