A Magic Shop book ( )

Made me stop and wonder what life would be like if everyone told the truth all the time! ( )

This mysterious, yet fascinating book tells the story of a young boy (Charlie) who is well known for not telling the truth. After a run in at a magic shop, he finds himself with a skull. The skull that he steals eventually helps him tell the truth. I think this is a really good book because it teaches a valuable lesson on telling the truth.

Charlie Eggleston is the biggest liar in town. When he finds himself at Mr. Elives' magic shop, his eyes light upon the skull. He steals it, and it puts him under some sort of spell: Soon he can only tell the truth--but now no one believes him! I really liked this book because I feel like children could relate to it and realize that telling the truth is better even if it hurts feelings.
