A boy must untangle the web of lies he’s created in order to prove his innocence in this humorous and cheeky illustrated middle grade novel that’s perfect for “fans of Timmy Failure and Big Nate” ( Kirkus Reviews ). Sam Lyttle is prone to stretching the truth. Most of his lies are harmless; tall tales and the product of an overactive imagination. So when Sam is summoned to explain a strange discovery—a ping-pong ball in a jar of peanut butter—and denies involvement, no one believes him. Then more seemingly unrelated peculiarities emerge, and Sam categorically denies any knowledge of those, too. In between these mysterious accusations, and with evidence mounting against him, Sam ruminates on the different sorts of lies he has told using examples from his past. Meanwhile, two pounds of potatoes wind up in the washing machine. Sam comes to a decision: he decides it is time to come clean about this latest tangled web. He gathers his family to hear the truth. The whole truth. Or is it? Could it be that this final “truth” is, in fact, another lie?

Pandora's granny is a witch She's a lot of fun, but she can get into a lot of trouble too. When Granny waves her wand, there are pirates in the school play, bats in the bedroom and wackiness at a wedding And it's up to Pandora to put things right. Thank goodness she can do magic too

There's more magical mayhem when Granny's Halloween party goes off with a bang, a birthday trip to a build-your-own-bear factory careers out of control, and who could possibly be responsible for penguins paddling at the local swimming pool?

“Royalty does not karate-chop.” –Madame Gertrude Princess Viola is great at skateboarding and karate-chopping, but she’s lousy at the royal wave, walk, and waltz. The king and queen are not pleased.

Who else will save the day when the green dragon comes along? Joe Berger’s zippy illustrations use comic book–style panels and show off ZIP! ZUP! ZOOM! sound effects.
