Telling the truth is always the best, a lesson parents are eager to teach young ones. Welcome, Flo, the Lyin' Fly, to Hermie's delightful world. Like the little boy who cried "wolf," Flo thinks it's fun to tell stories that are not true. When her friends discover they can't trust her, they refuse to believe her when there's real trouble. Drawing from Proverbs 19:5, which says no one gets away with a lie, Flo the Lyin' Fly sets out to teach children, through incredibly humorous situations the importance of telling the truth no matter what the circumstance.

School Library Journal Review

PreS-Gr 4-From Max Lucado comes this colorful, computer animated treat about a pink fly named Flo who has difficulty telling the truth. When a kidnapping takes place, no one comes to help because they think Flo is lying. After a rescue, Flo deals with her problem and realizes that if one is not truthful all of the time, one will not be trusted any of the time. Featuring the award-winning vocal talents of Vicki Lawrence, Tim Conway, Don Knotts, Frank Peretti, and Melissa Disney, the audio is vibrant. The Dove Award-winning Christian music group, Third Day, star as "The Water Beetles" adding a bit of music and comedy to the storyline as well. The DVD contains a Spanish language track, bonus material, and a game. Particularly useful for church school classes and religious collections, this title will fit nicely into most general viewing collections as well. Lucado fans will be thrilled with this new addition.-Kirsten Martindale, formerly Menomonie Public Library, WI (c) Copyright 2010.
