Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Prank, or the Philosophy of Tricks and Mischief
There are some boys who seem to love wickedness for its own sake. To point out to such boys, therefore, that any thing which they are doing is wrong, and to show them why it is so, does no good. The fact that it is wrong seems to be the rea son why they like to do it, and the more plainly you show them that it is so, the more they seem to delight in it.
