One of the best books I have ever read!!!!!!!!!!! Just kidding. It's is a good book though.
It's about 2 crazy boys, George and Harold. They go to school and see a sign for the INVENTION CONVENTION. They are about to enter when their mean principle, who they once hypnotized, stops them. Since being hynotized, the principal turns into Captain Underpants when anyone snapps their fingers 3 times. So to get their own back, they mess up all the inventions. There is this brainy kid who made a copy mac...more

Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets by Dav Pilkey is a story about two boys, George and Harold, who get into a lot of trouble. While in detention the two boys create a comic book about a super hero named Captain Underpants and evil toilets that want to take over the world. A classmate created a copy machine that turns pictures into actual living objects. Harold and George sneak out of detention to make copies of their comic, but everything goes horribly wrong. The drawings o...more
You know, I almost don’t want to admit it, but I enjoyed Captain Underpants. Not to the point that I feel like I need to read another one, but certainly more than I expected. George and Harold are two bright yet… precocious young men who write their own comic books about a character they call Captain Underpants. Due to some accident that occurs in the first Captain Underpants book, their principal is occasionally hypnotized to believe he is Captain Underpants, during which time he sheds his clot...more

Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets by Dav Pilkey is a short graphic novel. It is about two young boys and all of their havoc and chaos they cause in their school. This book was written according to the literary standards. The theme is very compelling for readers in a real world because the story line is very relateable to students who act out or do crazy things in school like these boys. As well, the students can dive into the fantasy world because it is so entertaining and...more
Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets opens with a comic strip giving a premise of the book- telling the true story of how they hypnotized their principal. Two boys, Harold and George transform their principal into Captain Underpants whenever they snap their fingers. To stay out of trouble, the boys receive detention but instead find themselves in a world of trouble. They stumble on a super copier that breathes life into 2-D illustrations. Harold and Greg copied their newest c...more

So far, my favorite in the series. Harold and George go to the detention room. Mr Krupp their principal tells them to write the sentence "I will never do anything which angers my handsome and charming principal, Mr Krupp, ever, ever again." Once they finished writing the sentences, they had a lot of time to write a new comic to sell at the playground. Mr Krupp said if they left the detention room, they would be suspended. But George and Harold snuck out and tried to make copies of their book wit...more
I can remember my younger brother reading this series when he was younger and getting a good laugh from them. I am not above toilet humor, pun intended, and that is exactly what this book delivers. It is two boys constantly getting into trouble and making jokes at the expense of the faculty. It has fantasies that boys crave, practical jokes on the principal and a copy machine that turns paper drawing into real life. I still think about these things to this day, but sadly cannot act upon them as...more
Ever since The Super Diaper Baby 2 book I received from class and introduced to my boys, they are crazy mad over Dav Pilkey and Captain Underpants! This is a comic-like chapter book written by Harold and George, 2 students. They have turned their principal into Captain Underpants by using the Patsy 2000, a copying machine that turns pictures into real life people/objects. The principal must save the day when the toilets come to life and take over the school and town. This is such a silly story b...more

Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets opens with a cartoon strip of Harold and George, two kids that hypnotize their principle to turn into "Captain Underpants" whenever he hears finger snapping. The two boys get in trouble and are banned from a school function but refuse to listen to their orders. They sneak in and make copies of a comic strip where toilets come to life and attack. The adventure finally comes to a logical conclusion, that in reality, does not really matter bu...more
This book is a continuation from the first book of the series, Captain Underpants. This book is very different from the first because in this story, there are monsters including evil toilets that start roaming around the school and everywhere else. Of course if there is evil, there is a superhero. When George and Harold created evil animated toilets through a classmate's machine, the toilets start attacking everyone. The story then goes on with Captain Underpants taking them all down along with...more
Again, another good one by Pilkey. I'm not going to go into a blow by blow of the superbly woven plot line (insert sarcasm here), but I will say, it's another great Captain Underpants book. When we finished #1, my son immediately wanted to start on #2 (books, that is). I'm so glad I bought all 8 at once so we could fly through these. They are medium length chapter books, but each chapter is not long, and because the content is so silly and fun, they fly by; we often read an entire book in one si...more
En este libro es dos ninos, Gorge y Berto. Un dia esta en el estudio de estudiantes y Gorge y Berto dibuho un comicbook. El otros estudiantes se gusto el comic. Antes de esto, es un invencion y Gorge y Berto puso el comic en el invencion y el comic esta real! En el fin el toilits esta chasing Gorge, Berto, y el maestras.

I choose this book because Captain Underpants is one of my favorite books. The plot of this book is about two elementary kids making their comic book come alive. I don't remember any quotes from the story but my favorite page was when the toilets come to live and start eating every teacher and student in the school. That was my favorite part because in real life I wish that the toilets it all the teachers so their wouldn't be any school. The thing about the book is that the two little boys alway...more
Hahaha this book was probably one of the cheesiest story's ever. Dav Pilky the author already had a funny enough story with a princapal in his underwear fighting evil toliets that say "yum yum yum eat em up!", buthe made it extra funny, when he had parts of the text like:"I have a good idea"said Harold "what?" said George "run!" and "help me!" screamed Ms Ribble "they're going to eat me!" "Don't worry" said Captin Underpants "I wont let them eat you" he said as a toilet ate Ms Ribble. I probably...more

More good fun with Harold and George.
They threw away the hypno-ring instructions, so they had to learn the hard way that their principal will become Captain Underpants whenever anyone snaps their fingers, and will revert to himself when you throw water on his head.
Good things to know, though, because this time George and Harold's big mistake is in not believing their classmate actually created a machine that will "copy" pictures into three dimentional living creatures. So, when they try to use...more

Second in a series, this highly-illustrated story with its sections of do-it-yourself animation, comic book, and third-grade humour will delight younger readers. My nine-year-old and almost eight-year-old grandsons are examples! Even an adult can chuckle; and there are underpinning foundations as well. George & Harold write and illustrate their own comic books, when their time isn’t better spent in dangerous mischief leading to detention. In the process, they have managed at one point (in th...more
If your not reading Captain Underpants series( of any age) your really missing out lol. Once I started reading i could not stop try it out. I felt sorry when someone snapped their fingers and the mean old principal became Captain Underpants because Captain Underpants ruins everything. I thought the most funniest part of the whole book. Was the ending, and it was funny to see the teachers writing all these crazy things that George and Harold made them write. Like get a life, I will chill out,I wi...more
If you are trying to get a boy to LOVE reading...to have that spark of interest to turn reading into a life long love....start with Captain Underpants! My oldest son at age 8 was not interested in reading, books were boring to him. I found Captain Underpants at the schools books sale and gave it to him to try. After he finished a couple of the captain underpants books he went straight to Harry Potter. Now my son is 21, has collections of all his favorite books and is a beloved avid reader. Becau...more

This is another hilarious book in the Captain Underpants series by Dav Pilkey. We really liked the first book and I'm not sure why we waited so long to read the next one. Our girls were howling with laughter and insisted that I read another chapter and another chapter until we finished the whole book in one reading (it's a quick read, but they still were up a little later than I'd like!) The humor is quite juvenile and the storyline is very predictable, but we all really liked it. They especiall...more
Parents who aren't already on the Captain Underpants bandwagon are missing out. These books are fun, funny and most of all they get kids engaged with real books, not just game screens.
Harold and George are best friends and a pair of truly mischievous kids. In the first book they kinda sorta accidentally brainwashed their mean principal into becoming Captain Underpants, the comic superhero they created. In this book Principal Krupp (Captain Underpants' alter ego) is holding the second annual In...more

Setiap ada kejadian aneh di sekolah, tak perlu berpikir keras untuk mengetahui siapa biang keladinya. Karena dapat dipastikan George dan Harold-lah yang bertanggung jawab. Begitulah anggapan Miss Ribble, Mr Meaner, Miss Anthrope, para guru mereka di SD Jerome Horwitz dan tak ketinggalan Mr. Krupp sang kepala sekolah. Mereka bahkan punya julukan untuk kedua anak laki-laki itu. Biang kerok , licik, bandit kriminal, dan beberapa kata yang tidak rasanya tidak pantas untuk ditulis dan diucapkan. Mere...more

Back by popular demand, more night readings with flip-o-rama and tra-la-laaaa! Good times.
...and let's not forget the explanation of why boys need urinals and girls don't, and the Uranus joke that flew over youngest's head.
All boy humor, all the time.
Good times!
It may not be classic literature, but I sure do enjoy the time youngest and I spend together. He would probably tell you that his Mama really gets into the characters, too. Thankfully, no recording devices are around. I'm turning out to b...more

So.... wanting to keep in touch with what my son is reading... for what it is, this actually isn't too bad. Rather than a bunch of random stuff as a lot of generic kids series-type books are, there was some inventiveness and a certain logic to events. A certain object (no, not a toilet) was used very effectively as a plot device - the kind of thing that makes you go - "ooh, if I had one of those, what would I do with it?" Almost 4 stars... Nah - what the heck 4 stars.
George and Harold are usually responsible kids... whenever anything bad happens, George and Harold are usually responsible!
And it looks like they're up to their old tricks again! First, they ruined the school's science fair with a series of silly pranks. Then, they accidentally created an army of evil, vicious, talking toilets, intent on taking over the world. Who will stop the carnivorous commodes?!!!? This looks like a job for Captain Underpants!

This was just the first book I grabbed. Its about 2 kids that made there teacher thinks hes Captain Underpants with a 3D hypno-ring. Whenever someone snaps their fingers he turns in to Captain Underpants.
Captain Underpants is a comic that the 2 kids make.
I like this book because its has funny pictures and is easy to read. I'm only reading because it's for my grade. I think younger children would enjoy the book.
I'd rather be doing something FUN

If I was in second or third grade, I'd probably give this a 5. It definitely is not written for 24 year old librarians, but Dav Pilkey's book is awesomely clever and hilarious, and many reluctant and non-reluctant readers will love this book (though they might have already read it).
I'm sure there are those who will object to the subject of toilets/toilet humor etc. In this case, I'm not one of them.

It was a pretty good book.
I really recommend this book to any 4-5 grader. I really liked this because it is kinda funny. It's also really stupid.
If read this book I think you will visualize a lot because there a lot of funny things it will talk about so yeah it will be a lot of visualizing.
So it was a great book, I recommend this to any one who likes funny books.
