Book excerpt: Meet Sofia! She's one of the Five Enchanted Mermaids. She loves the color red, has a best friend that's a dolphin and loves to tell the truth!Sofia also loves to help young children understand why honesty is important and learn how to be honest in the things they do and say. In this book she explains the reasons for lying and offers short vignettes that are age-appropriate for young children to understand. Sofia speaks directly to the young child about why children lie. She weaves these basic reasons into stories where a situation unfolds regarding honesty. Then, she offers two outcomes - happy and unhappy - that are possible results of each of the situations. These illustrate in a tangible way the consequences of each choice the child makes and are great conversation starters between the adult and child.
