**I received a complimentary copy of this book via NetGalley. All thoughts expressed within are entirely my own.

So I picked this book up as a review on NetGalley and it's adorable! Definitely something I could see my 6-year-old reading in the very near future. 

Maggie gets in trouble when her not-so-nice cousin tells a lie. Nobody believes Maggie when she tells the truth so she decides she's going to start fibbing. Oh, and she's a witch, did I mention that? 

As Maggie starts telling more and more fibs, they spiral out of control and it takes her grandpa's help to set things straight. Maggie almost loses her best friend over it! 

I loved this book. The pacing, the illustrations, and the story line. I'm looking forward to sharing this entire series with my daughter and seeing her reactions to Maggie.
