In this hilarious sequel to The Goblin Twins, two Korean goblin trickster brothers find that pranking New Yorkers is harder than they thought! From the critically acclaimed author of If I Had Your Face, and #1 New York Times bestselling illustrator of Take Heart, My Child.

After moving from Korea to New York, Doki and his twin brother Kebi have been settling into their new home. Doki has so many new books to read!

But Kebi hasn't been adjusting as easily. He has no friends! And his pranks on New York City  haven't been working.

Subway delays. Traffic jams. Scary smoke. New Yorkers have seen it all!

It's up to Doki to cheer his brother up and come up with pranks big enough to shock their New York City neighbors in this humorous and heartwarming story inspired by the Korean mythology of dokkaebi.
