Lügen dürfen nur die Grossen

Have you ever caught adults lying? Then you can relate to Benno. There’s Mr. Peters from next door, the blonde cashier at the supermarket, Grandpa with the beard from up by the Baltic Sea, even Mom and Dad. They all do it. When Benno discovers that even his beloved Grandma isn't always honest with him, he is overwhelmed with anger. Whether Benno can forgive his dearest Grandma is something you’ll have to find out for yourself. So open the book and start reading. Heike Herzog delves into the souls of children with her emotional story about lying and raises the question: Why is it only the grown-ups who are allowed to lie without being punished or scolded? A book for reading aloud and for independent reading that encourages reflection on one’s own actions.
