# The Stinky Truth - Hardcover

by **Joe Berger** (Author), **Joe Berger** (Illustrator)

**Sam Lyttle learns that sometimes the truth can hurt just as much as a lie in this follow-up to the humorous and cheeky illustrated middle grade novel _The Pudding Problem_ which _Kirkus Reviews_ calls perfect for "fans of Timmy Failure and Big Nate."**

School's out, and a long, hot summer of endless fun beckons for Sam and Charlie. Except that no sooner has it begun than they're wishing it away in anticipation of _Cry Wolfe_, the first Wolfe Stone movie, which opens at the end of the season. Sam's mom issues him a challenge: if, and only if, Sam can make it through the entire vacation without telling a single fib, he will be allowed to see his crime-fighting hero on the big screen.

Six whole weeks, without a single lie? No problem. Until the small matter of a tray of snowball cakes in the fridge with a Sam-sized footprint in them threatens to end Sam's dreams of cinema heaven. Can he continue to steer clear of lying, while not having to reveal the _actual_ reason he was in the fridge, in the dark, standing on a table to get to the top shelf to hide 'the thing that shall never be named?'
