This is a good and very imaginative story of a young boy who ate a whole jar of cookies. He then lies to his family when they asked him if it was he who ate all the cookies. The lie quickly turns into a big, fat, and runny nose imaginary monster that follows him wherever he goes. He begs the monster to stop bothering him until he cannot take it anymore. He finally runs to his parents and tells them the truth and then the monster goes away.
I love the imagination this book brings to show something, such as a lie, that is intangible, and bring it to life to teach others that even if you cannot see something, that doesn’t mean it will have no effect on your conscience. I definitely see it teaching an important lesson to always tell the truth. At this age, children are still trying to learn and grasp the consequences of doing something wrong and being honest about it over telling a lie. I really enjoyed this book because of its educational value and lesson it taught.
