Liar, Liar: The Theory, Practice and Destructive Properties of Deception

Liar, Liar: The Theory, Practice and Destructive Properties of Deception
by Gary Paulsen
 
Kevin doesn't mean to make trouble when he lies. He's just really good at it, and it makes life so much easier. But as his lies pile up, he finds himself in big—and funny—trouble with his friends, family, and teachers. He's got to find a way to end his lying streak—forever. (description from Amazon.com)
 
This book is meant for an upper elementary/early middle school audience.  While it is funny and teaches a good lesson about lying, this is almost too easy of a read! It is breezy and humorous, but I think a lot of older readers will be slightly disappointed when they are done.  I would definitely suggest this to readers on the younger end of that spectrum...
