Someone (I assume it's Larry) tells a fib, and naturally is visited by a "Fib" from outer space that sort of "feeds" on his lies and keeps getting bigger and bigger until it's 100 feet tall and threatening to destroy Larry's town or something.

I remember reading a story once that I thought had to doing with fibbing, but thinking back, it must have been about tattletailing. Whenever a kid tattled, a dark cloud with a tail sticking out of it formed above the kid's head and followed him around. I want to say it was "The Last of the Really Great Wangdoodles" by Julie Andrews (writing as Julie Edwards), but I read that a few years back, and that wasn't it.

I also like "The Phantom Tollhouse," in which, if you made an assumption, you were immediately transported to the Ilse of Conclusions -- having jumped there, of course.
