Reviews

This story featuring humanlike animals teaches the importance of trust within friendships and the power of telling the truth. - Children's Lit
A lesser story might have ended on this somber note, but this one has a surprising twist. - The New York Times
Available in English and Spanish editions, this picture book provides a valuable lesson on white lies and the importance of trust among friends. - Starred Review Foreword

The cute and very literal artwork features humanoid animals in simple outfits and homey settings. The color palette is a very attractive mix of earth and jewel tones and the art looks like watercolor accented with pencil, all in service of flat, childlike illustrations with lots of familiar details. The author is a professor of psychology and this book is part of a series about small childhood dilemmas. - Youth Services Book Review


Written by the renowned author and psychologist Susanna Isern, and charmingly illustrated by Leire Salaberria, "Fox Tells A Lie" with its deftly embedded message in support of being honest is an ideal and recommended addition to family, daycare center, preschool, elementary school, and community library collections for children ages 4-8. - Midwest Book Review, Children's Bookwatch
