Captain Underpants #1: The Adventures of Captain Underpants Award-winning

Author/Illustrator

Dav Pilkey

When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. He was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories, so he spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books—the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants.

Since then, Dav has written and illustrated a number of bestselling and award-winning children’s books, including his Captain Underpants series and Dog Man graphic novels, which have sold millions of copies worldwide and have been translated into many languages.

Dav lives in Washington State, USA with his wife, but his writing is inspired by children and adults around the world. His stories explore universally positive themes that celebrate the triumph of the good-hearted.

   Mr.Krupp is a mean man! At least he was before two schoolboys-George and Harold zapped him with a hypno ring so now he thinks he’s a superhero called captain underpants! I would recommend this book to 6-11 year olds

   Captain Underpants books are really funny and whenever he gets a splash of water on him he turns back into a normal horrible school teacher!

    I thought that this book is extremely good because u get 2 see the humour. But the best thing about it is that there are some things that are called flip-o-rama. You put your left hand on something then it becomes good, like a moving picture. it is basicly about a superhero named ( captain Underpants) who saves the world from evil.
