** "White and Black Lies: Or, Truth Better than Falsehood" by Madeline Leslie is a story about doing what's right, following the journey of one family as they grapple with the challenges of telling the truth. The book centers around Joseph Saunders, a youngster raised by his Aunt Clarissa, who hasn't quite learned the importance of honesty. As Joseph's dishonesty leads to problems, the book also looks closely at his siblings, Ellen and Alice, and their father, showing how each of them deals with honesty and what they learn along the way. The narrative, set in a time when doing what's right was heavily emphasized, acts as a reminder of the lasting effects of our choices. **
