Review: The Terrible Two Go Wild by Mac Barnett and Jory John

2 stars (It was okay).

So, the humor’s still here. Our prankster heroes are still magnificent at pranking. Principal Barkin continues to be a delightful character. The illustrations are great. What I was missing for much of this book was plot. I read it out loud to my 8 year old and 5 year old, and we all kept wondering where it was going.

By the end, it had settled into itself, but we did find ourselves kind of bored and confused quite a few times before that.

But it has a 4.2 star rating on Goodreads, so who knows?
