Adventures of Captain Underpants, The: An epic Novel - Dav Pilkey

The Captain Underpants books are perfect reading material for boys aged 7 - 10, who don't like books and who don't want to read. Half book half comic, it features the adventures of Harold and George who accidentally turn their headteacher into a super hero called Captain Underpants.

The Adventures of Captain Underpants is an "epic novel" written by Dav Pilkey. It is primarily for children aged between 6-12 but aged 18 with nothing else to read the other night I quite enjoyed the 15 minutes entertainment it gave me.

Captain Underpants books are awesome, they revolve around George and Harold as they accidently turn their Principal Mr. Krupp into their Comic Book hero Captain Underpants! They have weird and wacky adventures from the mind of Dav Pilkey. What makes it so funny is some of the enemys they face such as Talking toilets, a huge dandelion and A guy called Professer Poopypants(lol).

The books also have really wired names such as book 3= Captain Underpants and the Invasion of the Incedibly ...  Read the complete review
