Ard Hoyt.
Tilly loves playing tricks on her family, friends, and teachers. The tricks are classic--poked hole in a cup, red-hot candy--and Tilly gains pleasure (too much? she’s a little overly gleeful) from her victims' discomfort. When she sickens her brother with toothpaste-filled cookies, her family gives Tilly a taste of her own medicine. Watercolor and ink illustrations reflect the incorrigible girl's energy.
