Though we let our kids read this, we also make sure to discuss “lying” versus “twisting/omitting truth.”
If you’re following me for my biblical point of view, I’ll also note there is one moment in the book where fingers are crossed for luck. Superstition is not biblical, but, for our family, it’s okay to read as long as we understand that.
Overall, it’s a fun and unique storyline.
