The Theory, Practice and Destructive Properties of Deception
by Gary Paulsen
Kevin doesn't mean to make trouble when he lies. He's just really good at it, and it makes life so much easier. But as his lies pile up, he finds himself in big - and funny - trouble with his friends, family, and teachers. He's got to find a way to end his lying streak - forever.
"'I'm the best liar you'll ever meet,' announces the glib narrator of this funny and touching novel. Ages 8-12." - Publishers Weekly
"This brief, humorous effort will appeal to reluctant middle-school readers, who will recognize the truth behind witty Kevin's inventive deceptions." - Kirkus Reviews
"Liar, Liar is a laugh-out-loud tale of teenage angst...Familiar topics of crushes, financial trouble and family dynamics are nicely woven into the story, and Paulsen’s characters are as personable and believable as ever." - BookPage
