You can explain to your child as much as you want that lying is bad. Most likely, he won’t take it seriously (so what, you lied – no one will even know!) But imagine: what if lying was visible and could leave a stain not only on your reputation?
The main character of this book told a lie, and her lie turned into a huge red ball! It followed her everywhere and reminded her of her misdeed. The author very accurately conveys how lies are perceived by children: they are ashamed and afraid because their parents will stop loving them.
The book gives adults a unique opportunity to look at the situation through the eyes of a child. And children - to understand that they are not alone in their feelings.
"Other Tales" is a new series of instructive stories for children aged four and up, which will help parents cultivate important qualities in their children: honesty, kindness and the ability to accept themselves and others.
