I'm a sucker for a story that teaches a lesson! This book has several lessons- when is it OK to tattle/report, what to do if you need to tattle/report on a friend, and about doing the right thing in general.
As an elementary teacher, I see kids often struggle with tattling versus reporting, as well as reporting on one of their friends. Devon does a great job in this story. I think many kids will relate to this story.

I wasn't wowed by the illustrations.
