Bookroo's summary

As April Fools' Day approaches, Hubie scrambles to craft the perfect prank. But his classic tricks fall flat, and an unexpected joke from an unlikely source leaves him reeling. Can Hubie outwit the ultimate prankster, or will he become the fool? Dive into a world where surprises lurk around every corner, and nothing is as it seems.

From the publisher

It’s the end of March, and Hubie is struggling to prepare his pranks for the big day. The whoopee cushion, the rubber tarantula, and the fly in the ice cube just aren’t good enough anymore – not when the worst joke comes from the place he least expects it. The joke’s on you in the April Fools’ Day from the Black Lagoon! Aligned to Common Core Standards and correlated to state standards. Chapter Books is an imprint of Spotlight, a division of ABDO.
