Volume 1 - 1st printing. "The Pudding Problem!"
Story and art by Joe Berger.
A boy must untangle the web of lies hes created in order to prove his innocence in this humorous and cheeky illustrated middle grade novel thats perfect for fans of Timmy Failure and Big Nate (Kirkus Reviews).
Sam Lyttle is prone to stretching the truth. Most of his lies are harmless; tall tales and the product of an overactive imagination. So when Sam is summoned to explain a strange discovery—a ping-pong ball in a jar of peanut butter—and denies involvement, no one believes him. Then more seemingly unrelated peculiarities emerge, and Sam categorically denies any knowledge of those, too.
In between these mysterious accusations, and with evidence mounting against him, Sam ruminates on the different sorts of lies he has told using examples from his past. Meanwhile, two pounds of potatoes wind up in the washing machine.
Sam comes to a decision: he decides it is time to come clean about this latest tangled web. He gathers his family to hear the truth. The whole truth. Or is it? Could it be that this final truth is, in fact, another lie?
Softcover, 5-in. x 8-in., 240 pages, B&W.

Volume 2 - 1st printing. "The Stinky Truth!"
Story and art by Joe Berger.
School's out, and a long, hot summer of endless fun beckons for Sam and his best friend Charlie. Except that no sooner has it begun, they're wishing it away in anticipation of Cry Wolfe, the first Wolfe Stone movie. Sam's mom issues him a challenge: if, and only if, Sam can make it through the entire vacation without telling a single fib, will he be allowed to see his crime-fighting hero on the big screen. Six whole weeks, without a single lie!?
No problem. Until the small matter of a tray of snowball cakes in the fridge with a Sam-sized footprint in them threatens to end Sam's dreams of cinema heaven. Can he continue to steer clear of lying, while not having to reveal the actual reason he was in the fridge, in the dark, standing on a table to get to the top shelf to hide "the thing that shall never be named"?
Softcover, 5-in. x 8-in., 240 pages, B&W.
