Just the sight of this book should set the whoopee-cushion contingent into nefarious cackles. Using snazzily designed, photo-heavy, step-by-step instructions, Owen guides junior troublemakers through eight pranks ranging from the supersimple to the challenging. Feel like putting fake worms into your pal’s sandwich? It’s amazing how wormlike Jell-O poured into straws looks. Or maybe you’d like to eat green eggs in front of your sister or freak out mom by putting a fake tear on the wallpaper. Most ingenious is a booby trap that drops a Mentos into a bottle of soda when someone opens it—and you know what happens next. It’s mostly harmless (though a party popper rigged inside an envelope is rather extreme), and it goes without saying that, despite the series title of DIY for Boys, this works for girl jokesters too. Grades 4-6. --Daniel Kraus
