One little lie, but big trouble!
When Alex lies to her mom about losing her shoelaces, it doesn't seem like a big deal. But how do you replace special baseball laces when you don't have any money and you're not allowed to go to the store alone? A big softball game is coming up, and Alex knows the coach won't let her pitch in shoes without laces - or in cowboy boots!
Alex knows she should tell the truth. Why is it so hard?
Every kid gets into the predicaments that Alex does - ones that start out small and mushroom. Readers will learn from Alex's mistakes and understand that they have the same sources of help that she turns to: a God who loves them and parents who understand.
You'll want to read all the books about Alex and her friends and family.
Nancy Simpson, who shares Alex's love of sports, lives in Texas.
