Part V: Resources Book: The Truth Pops Out Author: Marc Brown This story is about a group of friends having a garage sale to raise money to save the animals at the zoo. The main character Binky finds a toy at the sale and sneaks away to play with it. After a couple minutes of playing with the toy he brakes it. So he tries to hid the toy around the garage sell but it eventually returns to the surface. Another kid finds the toy and plays with it, it brakes and that kid thinks he brakes the toy. Binky feels bad and tell the kid that he was the one that broke it and gives the boy one of his toys. I chose this book because I children are always scared to get in to trouble if they brake something. So they tend to lie and cover up their mistakes. My students will be able to relate to the story and they will learn that telling the truth will make them feel better than being dishonest.
