About this Series

Fourth graders George and Harold have a mischievous streak a mile wide. On top of driving Principal Krupp crazy with their pranks, the boys love to draw comics. Their favorite creation is Captain Underpants—the world's most underdressed superhero. But when they accidentally hypnotize Mr. Krupp into believing he is Captain Underpants, their imaginary world comes to life. All it takes is a snap of the fingers to let this caped crusader loose in a world of talking toilets, lunchroom zombies, and other zany villains. But no matter how much trouble George and Harold get themselves into, their imaginations are always one step ahead, and Captain Underpants never fails to save the day.Filled with action-packed comic panels, clever humor that appeals to kids of all ages, and gloriously over-the-top fight scenes, these books have gained a fiercely loyal following. The illustrations help kids combine visual and textual information to deepen their understanding of what's happening, and the endlessly inventive main characters are sure to inspire readers to use their own imaginations and creativity. Dav Pilkey's keen sense of kid logic and his no-holds-barred humor guarantee a fun and funny reading experience every time.

About the Author

When he wouldn't pay attention in class because he'd rather be drawing comics, award-winning artist and writer Dav Pilkey's teacher told him he'd better get serious because he couldn't spend his whole life "writing silly books"! Dav created his first Captain Underpants character while sitting at a desk in the hallway as punishment…when he was only in second grade. These enormously popular chapter books attract even the most reluctant readers with their irreverent wit and kid-friendly plots, where adults are always the very last to know what's going on.
