What to expect

On their own, pranksters Miles and Niles were pretty devious. Now that they’ve formed a pranking duo, they’re terrible! But their powers will be tested when their favorite nemesis, Principal Barkin, is replaced by his stern and cunning father, former Principal Barkin. Now Miles and Niles will do just about anything to get their old antagonist back—including pranking alongside him.

From authors and friends Mac Barnett and Jory John comes the second installment in the series that celebrates inventiveness, friendship, and the power of teamwork—for good, or for terrible.

Critics Review

  • “Fast-paced and laugh-aloud funny, the book will appeal to a wide range of readers…A welcome addition for fans of the first book, though familiarity with the original isn’t necessary to enjoy this hilarious sequel”

    Library Journal
  • “This humorous sequel makes for engaging, fast-paced reading that again highlights the meaning of friendship… Existing fans will enjoy learning more about Miles and Niles and their latest capers, and room is left for another follow-up.”

    Booklist
  • “John and Barnett’s sophomore effort is as much fun as series opener The Terrible Two…A joy for pranksters and seekers of a good-hearted laugh.”
