THE HONEST-TO-GOODNESS TRUTH

Patricia C. McKissack, , illus. by Giselle Potter. . S&S/Aladdin, $6.99 (40pp) ISBN 978-0-689-85395-1

"McKissack thoroughly examines a common childhood problem—discerning when the truth helps and when it hurts—with homespun language and accessible situations," wrote PW. "The intimate settings so integral to Potter's folk-art style provide a fitting complement to the author's cozy community." Ages 4-8. (Jan.)
