The Terrible Two

Description

New York Times bestseller!
“This book is really funny and exciting.” —Guardian
“A double helping of fun and mischief.” —Jeff Kinney, author, Diary of a Wimpy Kid

It’s prankster against prankster in the first book of the hilarious New York Times bestselling series by Mac Barnett and Jory John! Welcome to Yawnee Valley, the land of cows.

“Some facts about Yawnee Valley: If you placed all of Yawnee Valley’s cows in a stack, they would extend to the moon and back. (But this is probably not a good idea since cows are afraid of heights and cannot breathe in space without helmets.”

Miles Murphy is known for one thing and one thing only: pranking. He’s the best prankster his school has ever seen. So, when he’s forced to move to boring, cow-filled Yawnee Valley, he assumes he’ll be the best prankster at his new school, too.

There’s one problem. The school already has a prankster—and he’s good. Really good. Let the prank war begin!

Young readers won’t want to put this book down. It’s just a lot of fun. Deceptively simple to read but with a lovely flow, the concepts are sometimes deep, including the subject of bullying. But Terrible Two never reverts to the obvious or to potty humor, and the vocabulary is spot-on for the age group.

From bestselling authors Mac Barnett and Jory John comes this deviously funny new series about fitting in, making your mark, and finding a friend where you least expect one.
