Collectible hardcover edition! All new illustrations! Same top-secret mix of fun and illustrations.
Adults, stop reading now. We mean it. This book is TOP SECRET and itâs FOR KIDS ONLY! (Are the grownups gone? Good.) Now that itâs just the kids, weâll let the cat out of the bag: This book is full of disgusting things and nasty (but funny) pranks. Itâs also got weird superstitions, freaky facts, unbelievable myths and legends, and did we mention gross stuff? Like boogers. And farting ghosts. And armpit sniffers. And entomophagy. (Whatâs that? Itâs the practice of eating worms.) But thereâs more than just gross stuff in this illustrated and easy-to-read book. Youâll be briefed in . . .
