Calling all pranksters! Here's the perfect book for every kid who wants to learn how to pull off great prank, whether it's a tried-and-true classic (The Squirting Flower), the ultimate gross-out gag (making realistic Fake Dog Poop), or a true head scratching puzzler (The Cotton Ball Shoe Rap), this guide to practical jokes, gags, and pranks will entertain kids and their victims - all in good fun, of course. Organized like an encyclopedia - from "A.M. Pranks" (pranks you pull in the morning) to "ZZZs Please" (pranks you pull at bedtime), Prankopedia is jam-packed with more than 50 pranks, plenty of sidebars outlining the best pranks throughout history ("Pranks that Rank"), and an 8-page 4-colour insert with premade perf-out pranks (fake soup can labels, fortune cookie misfortunes, and substitute restaurant menus). Pranks are written recipe style, with each prank broken down into a "What You Need" and a "What You Do" section, with fun, cartoon-like illustrations throughout.
