I love Mac Barnett. Extra Yarn is one of our favorite picture books of all time. I bought this as a bedtime book to read aloud to my 6-year-old daughter. We both loved it! In fact the whole family loved it! This book did not stay relegated to bedtime for long. We cuddled on the couch on a Saturday afternoon and read it. I started taking it whenever we were in the car to read while my husband drove. You will not want to put this book down; it is just that fun. It is also deceptively simple. The sentences are relatively short and easy to read with a lovely flowing cadence. However, the concepts are sometimes fairly deep. This book never fell victim to the obvious or to the juvenile potty humor that I hate. And the vocabulary, completely fabulous! This gave me the opportunity to teach my daughter several new vocabulary words. I definitely love that! It is practically impossible to find a funny book with such great use of words! I highly recommend this book. We are moving on to the The Terrible Two Get Worse!

My daughter and I loved this book! The scene where Miles and Niles try a Carolina Reaper made the whole family laugh until we cried. The writing in this book, just like the first, is so beautiful. Reading it out loud is amazingly fun. It flows off of the tongue like poetry! I even learned 2 new words - eschaton and samizdat! Pretty impressive for a children's book! We are eagerly awaiting the next!

This is the second book my son has read from cover to cover, and I think he read it in a week. I couldn't tell you what the book was about, by my son was laughing out loud, and telling stories about the pranks the kids in the book pull on each other like he was talking about his own friends. In fact, I think he feels like they're his friends. When he finished this book, he immediately asked for more books. That's never happened before.
I am eternally grateful.

My 9 year old girl is a big fan of the "Terrible Two" books. After reading the first one at Christmas, she begged me to buy this one. She devoured it the night we received it. She is already bothering me to buy the next one even though it has not been published yet.

My grandkids found this book very enjoyable. They loved the humor involved in the story. My hope is that they don't really try any of the pranks they have read about !!

This book is about the new kid in school named miles who WAS the prankster in his old school but now he is in a new school and has a new reputation to make. But there is already a professional prankster in this school and when miles challenges him to a prank war, things get a little heated.

Our household didn't think this book would ever be released! My boys (12 & 8) loved the first one and could not wait for the second, it did not disappoint! My 12yo actually read it twice and giggled through it just as hard the second time! So, when can we expect book 3???? (please) My boys like it better than Big Nate even.

A fantastic book, my 8 year old really enjoyed the thought that someone can be more than what is initially perceived. The pranks really captured his imagination, and he often recalls the various mischief the terrible two got into.

My 10 yr old nephew LOVES this series! I hope they write more so I can keep his nose in a book.
