Synopsis: Charlotte, a fifth grader who simply can not keep from telling tall stories, tells her most outlandish tale ever in her desperation to be included by a group of girls in her class. "You're weird, Charlotte Cheetham!" Charlotte's Only friend, Annie, tells her. "Everyone says so. I don't know why I play with you. Being weird might rub off!" Weird? No— it's just that Charlotte wants some excitement in her life, so she makes things up. And every time she tells a story about herself or her family, she believes it. Lies just pop out of her. This time, she's told the biggest one of all, and Tina, the meanest girl in class, insists that Charlotte prove her story is true. Or else! Prove it? How? For the first time ever, Charlotte's wild imagination has deserted her. What is she going to do? Pictures are described Ages 8--11
