Middle school students will find this book easy to read and relate to the humor. I cannot express how much I LOVED Niles’s “School Helper” creepy, smiling face. The pranks are well thought out and the competition between Miles and Niles takes on a life of its own.Ĭornell’s illustrations were a gratifying complement to the text. I will mention that there is some deception and deflection in the story but it is appropriate and adds to the storyline. It will connect most with boys from ages 11-13. My 13-year old son would thoroughly enjoy reading this one. Miles Murphy reluctantly moves to Yawnee Valley where he hopes to be the school’s biggest prankster but at Yawnee Valley Science and Letters Academy he’ll meet his match. This is the first book in The Terrible Two book series. If Miles is going to take the title from this mystery kid, he is going to have to raise his game. In his old school, everyone knew him as the town’s best prankster, but Miles quickly discovers that Yawnee Valley already has a prankster, and a great one. Synopsis: Miles Murphy is not happy to be moving to Yawnee Valley, a sleepy town that’s famous for one thing and one thing only: cows.
