The author tells us in her own words that she encourages "thinking outside the box" This book, which is part of a series, features the five year old Ruthy. This little girl has a problem telling the truth. When asked who ate the candy, who painted the walls or who made a mess, Ruthy gives that familiar answer, "it wasn't me." Dad comes up with an ingenious plan to make Ruthy realize that telling the truth is important. Dad makes a lot of promises, which he fails to keep. Nothing like learning by example. By demonstrating the very behavior that dad wants to correct, he is able to teach Ruthy the consequences of her actions and the importance of obeying the rules. Mother is also happy with the new situation where everyone follows the rules. She devises a surprise for Ruthy, her dad and the reader as well! As a bonus, there is also a free gift for the reader to download at the end of the story. Highly recommended for parents of young children and classroom teachers who desire to reinforce good behavior!
