Then again, this is a lot funnier than typical kid's stuff. Dav Pilkey has combined chapter book and comic book formats to hilarious advantage with this hugely popular series. George and Harold are two mischievous grade-schoolers (with remarkably Calvin-esque expressions) whose favourite pastimes are rearranging the letters on the school sign to make stupid sayings (why pass up a chance to see the word fart in print?) and playing incredibly complex practical jokes on their teachers. In the three previous Captain Underpants books, George and Harold have tried to rein in their principal, Mr. Krupp, whom they accidentally hypnotized into believing he is their own comic book hero, Captain Underpants! He has, surprisingly, acquired a few superpowers and is transformed by the snap of a finger. Good thing, too, because the school is about to face a grave enemy: a diminutive scientist named Professor Pippy P. Poopypants. Unable to stop the children laughing at his ridiculous name, the professor snaps, and uses two of his inventions to shrink the school and enlarge his pet-exercising machine, the Gerbil-Jogger 2000, to serve as his giant robotic body. He terrorizes the school and makes everyone change their sensible names to outlandish Swisslandish names, based on a clever chart. (My name, as I write this, is now Stinky Wafflesniffer). Silly? Yes. Funny? That, too. There are tons of laughs to be had in this cleverly written and unabashedly lowbrow series, which gives wedgies to authority figures and a little credit to kids. Ages 7-10.

Hilarious Reviewer: Adam Smith from Odessa , Ontario Date: 11/22/2000 7:30:05 PM This book is so full of pranks and funny things , I couldn't stop laughing. I am so close to trying some of those things. 4. Tra-la-laaaaaaa!!! Reviewer: Benjamin from Vancouver, BC Date: 11/20/2000 11:28:52 PM Captain Underpants appears again as a hero in this very funny story. An evil Professor named Poopypants goes to Jerome Horwitz elementary school and gets laughed at by the students. He gets mad and gets even. 5. Captain Underpants Reviewer: David Slupsky from Calgary Date: 9/23/2000 1:35:08 PM I can hardly wait for the next Captain Underpants book that my mom ordered. I read my 3 Captain Underpant books each and every night. Read all of the reviews...
