The Greatest Liar On Earth: a true story


Do you have a preschooler who enjoys non-fiction? You're in luck! There is a whole genre of non-fiction picture books waiting for your child to appreciate. One I recommend is The Greatest Liar on Earth: a true story by Mark Greenwood.
This true story takes place at the turn of the 20th century. It's about wanderer/explorer, Louis de Rougemont, who decided to settle down in London and entrance audiences with his fantastical tales of giant squids and raining fish. He enjoyed fame and fortune for several years until his tales became  too unbelievable for his audiences. Find out the truth about Louis in this picture book biograhy.
