Book Description
A hilarious, surreal debut picture book about the importance - and the pitfalls - of telling the truth.
Product Description
Once there was a boy named Tim whom no one believed, even when he was telling the truth. No one believed that it was a ninja who snaffled the last slice of cake; or that a giant squid ate his homework; or that it really was a time-travelling monkey who was throwing pencils at Grampa. How can Tim get his parents to believe him - when the truth is too incredible to be true?
From the Back Cover
When Tim is accused of eating the last slice of cake, stealing a hammer and losing his school bag, no one believes his side of the story.
He sets out to prove his innocence - but will his parents ever believe him when the truth is so unbelievable?
