I Did It, and I Hid It! a Book About Taking Responsibility

Lying is never a good thing. But even if you have lied about something, you can always correct that by simply telling the truth. The most important thing a person can do it to take responsibility when they do something wrong. Let the angel on your shoulder guide you, and not the devil sitting on the other side. What does our hero do, and why does he try to hide what he has done? What happens when he finally tells the truth? How do you feel when you tell a lie? Do you take responsibility for things you do, even when those things are wrong things? This is a book for both boys and girls, because girls can do bad things too; and yes, even girls lie. Sometimes moms and dads know you are lying, and sometimes they don?t. But the important thing to really remember is that the truth is much easier to remember than a series of lies. And the truth WILL set you free. Penelope Dyan is an attorney, a writer and a former teacher who really understands and loves kids.
