A fantastic lesson is the framework of this story that is filled with humor and a nice turn of events. The elementary kids and staff loved it.

Just a tiny bit dark in tone, something the adults can appreciate in picture books. Not quite 'original Grimm's fairy tales' type ending, but certainly leans toward delivering a dire fate to the wrong doer as a moral lesson to readers. 
Whether depicting the greedy character as fat is the wrong kind of messaging to send to kids today, feels sadly like a question that was just emerging into the mainstream when this book was first published.

A cute story about telling lies for 2-6 year olds: I enjoyed it and the illustrations are great but not quite as good as Pig the Pug
