The Terrible Two
Mac Barnett - 2015-01-13
Goodreads Rating
Get ready for an epic prank war in this middle-grade classic! Miles Murphy is known for being the town's best prankster, but that all changes when he moves to Yawnee Valley - a sleepy town that already has a great prankster. If Miles wants to reclaim his title, he'll have to up his game in a hilarious battle of trickery. This bestselling book, written by Mac Barnett and Jory John, has all the fun and humor of classic middle-grade literature while feeling fresh and new.

Loved reading @IamJoryJohn's hilarious book The Terrible Two to my 10-year-old son. Wish my own 10-year-old, con-artist-obsessed comedy brain could have read it.      source

@hwinkler4real @carlreiner That's a great book, but ask him for his "How To Live Forever." It's my prized possession. It consists of the phrase "When you complete a project, start a new project, spend time to improve it and aftr [sic] you approve of your improvements, start a new project..." for 233 pages      source
