I cried when I read this book. I am 28 years old and I keep Tibitz by my nightstand. It reminds me of the goodness still left in the world. I recommend this book to men and women (children too) of all ages.

This book is written for children to instill values of honesty and morals. Despite that it is written for children, I read it and found it amazing. I am 31 years old with no children but found it inspirational. I, as an adult, appreciated its simplicity. We all make life more complicated than it has to be. The world of Tititz is ideal and can be achieved if we all just strive to be happy and appreciate those around us. Everyone should read this book. It is worth the short time it takes to read and will be a book you will want to read over and over and share with those around you. If you have children, it is a definite must.

When a stranger came up to my family and I, and gave us 'Tibitz:A Land Of No Lies' and said "For your little ones.", pointing to my friend and I, I got a little upset. I am almost 12, and the idea of a stranger giving me a picture book was ridiculous. Of course, we took it. When seeing the price ($12.95), we thought 'wow, this is pretty expensive!' As we started reading it, it seemed like a book meant for 4-year-olds, who are just learning to read. The words were short and easy, with bright pictures to go along. About halfway, my friend and I really got into the book. It is a very fast-flowing book, and we kept reading, and soon, we were done. This is a very suitable book for ALL ages. It teaches the meaning of life, and one of the most important rules of all: Not to lie. I have read this book at least 50 times, and it NEVER gets old. To me, it is a timeless classic, like Winnie-The-Pooh, or Cinderella. Children will enjoy flipping through this book. I am almost 12 years old, so I am writing this review from a child's point of view. If you have a child my age, I assure you they will love reading it over and over and over. It is all worth it! I have read it so much that I almost have it memorized in my head!Now, I think that the price on the book is not expensive at all. It is all worth it! Enjoy this book as a child or an adult.

This book is awesome. Children and adults will benefit from the story here. I read this book to my son's kindergarten class, and the students sat silent during the story. The teacher was so impressed, with over 25 years teaching, she wanted a copy for her future classes. The book teaches a simple lesson of life which most of us have forgotten or take for granted and therefore we don't spend a lot of time teaching it anymore. If more people read this book for themselves and their children, our world will be a better place. A must read! A great gift!

Just amazing work! I just read it to my 37 year old friend George and he loved it. Great lessons for adults too. We don't get out much.

For anyone who has disappointed a friend because she was not true to her own heart, this book carries a profound and inspiring message: never lie, no matter what the consequences of truth may be. I was moved by the book's simplicty.

I enjoyed reading the book to my children. The illustrations are clever and colorful and appealing to children's eyes.

Every house should have a copy of this book to remind them of one of the most simple yet profound rules we should all live by. Told in simple, lilting verse, everyone, young and old, will enjoy it. The charming crayon-style illustrations enhance the pureness of the message.

This story (poem) is perfectly constructed for the minds of children and adults alike. The wistful story carries you through an enchanting land of truth and the desire for balance without confusing the mind of a child. I had the privilege of hearing it from (the illustrator) Jim Colachis, who did a fantastic job reciting the story. This is a must have children's book and don't hesitate to throw it on your coffee table as well.

Wonderful book, I meet the illustrator fantastic person, my daughter loved him.
Beautiful story, fantastic message.

I bought a second one to give as a gift.

Thank you

Please release the sequel.
