4-6Lyttle Lies series.
Habitual liar Sam Lyttle can't wait for a summer carnival with an open-air screening of his favorite movie. After a "truth make-over" lands Sam's mother in charge of a charity "Zumbathon," his family declares: no lying for three weeks, or no screening. Sam's efforts at total honesty bring predictable but humorous results, and a subplot involving a stinky cat adds more laughs. A comics format enhances the silliness.
