「うそをついちゃった」絵本

The kitchen-play scenario in this book is exactly what my daughter goes through with her brother, and the way Chef Andrew’s choice is laid out made her pause and think before I even asked any questions. The pages are sturdy enough for her to flip on her own, which is a bonus.

My kid asked me to read it three nights in a row, which never happens. The moment where Chef Andrew has to decide about the hat and apron really got her thinking about honesty — a win in my book.

The chef-and-sister dilemma is such a relatable way to open a chat about honesty, and my kid actually paused to think about Andrew’s choice instead of just hearing a lecture. The story’s message that truth feels better than lying really landed, and we’ve already read it twice this week.
