This children's book provides the history of April Fool's Day, shares how this day is celebrated in other countries, and suggests fun ways to fool someone. It also contains a glossary in the back of all the new words we learned while reading.

I have been researching the origins of April Fools' Day. Even though this is an easy nonfiction book, it gave some helpful clues.
