<div>Miles Murphy had it made. He lived in a great town near the ocean, he had two best friends, and, most importantly, he had a reputation for being his town’s best prankster. All of which explains why he’s not happy to be moving to Yawnee Valley, a sleepy town that’s famous for one thing and one thing only: cows. Worse than that, Miles quickly discovers that Yawnee Valley already has a prankster, and a great one. If Miles is going to take the title from this mystery kid, he is going to have to raise his game.<BR><BR> It’s prankster against prankster in an epic war of trickery, until the two finally decide to join forces in order to pull off the biggest prank ever seen: a prank so huge it would make the members of the International Order of Disorder (a loose confederacy of pranksters that flourished a couple of centuries ago) proud.<BR><BR> In THE TERRIBLE TWO, bestselling authors and friends Jory John and Mac Barnett have walked an impressive tightrope: They’ve created a series that has its roots in classic middle-grade literature yet feels fresh and daring at the same time.<BR><BR> "This book is terrible! Terribly funny, terribly full of pranks (and cows), and terribly wonderful."<BR> –Jon Scieszka, author of <I>The Stinky Cheeseman</I> and the Frank Einstein series<BR> <BR> "Miles and Niles are both hilarious and real-feeling friends I’ve never seen before. The pranks, the brotherhood, the art, the heart! What’s not to love about <I>The Terrible Two?"</I><BR> –Sara Pennypacker, author of the Clementine series<BR> <BR> "The Terrible Two are my kind of kids, and what’s more, they’re kids’ kind of kids."<BR> –Annie Barrows, author of the Ivy & Bean series<BR> </div>
