Good Liar

The main characters in Liar, Liar are Marybelle, Grizzy (Gretchen). They are in 6th grade. Grizzy is a nice girl who is kind to Marybelle. The problem is that Marybelle is a liar. She only lies because she wants to have many friends. Marybelle wants Crystal and Susan for friends. Marybelle steals other friends from Grizzy... Grizzy likes Spider and Amy since Marybelle stole her other friends. Amy is a new friend for Grizzy. Marybelle tells a lot lies to people. Most people believed her and her wish came true that everyone believed her and she had many friends... Marybelle can be a nice girl but she needs to stop lying and she is guilty of not telling the truth just to make friends. She can be nice, if she stop lying to people for stupid reasons. You should read Liar, Liar because it is so good... And I think it is for older people like teenagers and pre teenagers... It is an awsome book... It is based on a true experiences of what happens when a person lies...

She said that she saw Susan STEAL from a store a pair of earings and Susan claimed that it was her sisters and she borrowed it. Who should she believe? Then after Susan finally gets better, she starts treating Gretchen differently. Even her whole family does. Even some of her friends. Gretchen soon knew that Marybelle, was telling lies about her.

So, Gretchen tries to make friends with another girl, and does suceed but will she get her old friends back? If you read it, you'll see! I highly recomend this book.
