The Skull of Truth

This juvenile fantasy novel is a delightful story chock full of social issues. Predominantly, it is a tale about lying and telling the truth. Charlie is a boy who lies all the time. One day, he steals a magic skull, although he's never stolen anything in his life before this. The skull forces the people around it to tell the truth. Of course, telling the truth gets him into as much trouble as lying did, especially since no one really believes him. The skull's influence also rubs off on the people in Charlie's life, like his family. So Charlie must navigate his life until he can find a way to part with the skull.
