The Terrible Two by Mac Barnett and Jory John


Title: The Terrible Two
Author: Jory John and Mac Barnett
Pages: 217
Finished: 4/3/17

First Sentence: Welcome to Yawnee Valley, an idyllic place with rolling green hills that slope down to creeks, and cows as far as the eye can see.

Summary: Miles isn't happy about moving to the cow capital of the US. His only consolation is the fact that he plans on becoming the school's best prankster. That is, until he finds out the school already has a prankster. A prankster who might be better than Miles.

Thoughts: Fun pictures. Writing and storyline seem on par for 3rd to 5th grade. I particularly enjoyed the cow facts and the authors playing around with format. I also loved that Yawnee Valley's prankster had a code of honor.
