Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags
When Finn the Fox tells a tiny fib to stay out of trouble, it doesn't seem like a big deal, until the fib starts to grow! Soon, a swirling puff of gray fog begins to follow him everywhere he goes. The more he hides the truth, the thicker the fog becomes, clouding his fun and making the forest feel dim and lonely.
With help from his kind friends, Hazel the Hedgehog, Ruby the Rabbit, and Ollie the Owl, Finn learns that telling the truth clears the air, repairs friendships, and keeps their woodland world full of sunshine and trust. Through honesty, courage, and forgiveness, Finn discovers that even when mistakes are made, we can always make things right again.
