Five Starred Reviews!
A New York Public Library Best Book for Kids, 2016
Grown-ups lie. Thats one truth Beans knows for sure. He and his gang know how to spot a whopper a mile away, because they are the savviest bunch of barefoot conchs (that means locals) in all of Key West. Not that Beans really minds; its 1934, the middle of the Great Depression. With no jobs on the island, and no money anywhere, who can really blame the grown-ups for telling a few tales? Besides, Beans isnt anyones fool. In fact, he has plans. Big plans. And the consequences might surprise even Beans himself.
