When Dav Pilkey began drawing pictures of an underwear-clad, wedgie-giving superhero as a second grader, his teacher said, "You'd better start taking life more seriously, because you can't spend the rest of your days making silly books!" Luckily for us, Dav didn't listen, and Captain Underpants was born. Now, kids everywhere can enjoy this special edition of the book that started it all--with an awesome lenticular cover and a super-cool value-added component that's so amazing, so fun, and so top-secret that you'll just have to buy it to find out!

i think that this book was very good how the author made it. I like how he created a story that can be very silly and fun! captain underpants was the funniest and silliest main character i liked so far. And i liked how the auther made these series. (including this wonderful book.)

The Adventures of Captain Underpants is exactly that, the adventure of Captain Underpants and his two friends George and Harold. George and Harold are ina lot a fun with their new superhero they created in their treehouse, but things really start to get tricky when they decide to play a prank on their principal...

IT begins with George and Harold tried to hypnotize their mean Principal Mr. Krupt, using a hypno ring. They make him into Captain Underpants and he raced out the window. The first encounter was a little man with a diaper that was going to blow up the moon with a gigantic laser. At the end of the book they couldn't find a way to make him his regular self, so they poured water on his head. Later when they found the instruction manual, it said without them looking not to pour water on the head or else they would go back and forth between Captain Underpans and Self by finger snapping.

George and Harold turn their mean bald principal into a crazy Superhero wearing only underwear. Just in time too! There is a new villain in town, Dr. Diaper. Will Captain Underpants live in a wedgieless life forever? Or will he face the evil wrath of starch spray? Find out in this laugh-filled book of ADVENTURE!

hilarous!!! when the michvous george and harald hipnatize him into captian underpants. when he jumps out the window to fight crime he gets capured by evil robots can george and herold save them?

this book is about two rascal little boys who alway make trouble then they turn their prinsabul in to capten under pants!

George an Harold are two main charecters in the story they hypnotize their mean principal Mr.Krupp into thinking he Captain underpants

I did not know that Mr. Krupp was Captian Underpants. George and Harold are the two boys in the story. They took a hypnotizing ring and hypnotized Mr. Krupp and made him Captian Underpants. They made treehouse comics and they thought of Captian Underpants and they turned Mr. Krupp into Captian Underpants.

it's about these two boys who have a really mean principal who turns into captain underpants when he hits his head or something. The two boys are real trouble makers. They always get in troble.
