Summary: Reading Inspiration for 7 year olds!
Review: This series is hilarious, disgusting, borderline rude... everything a 7 - 12 year old little boy will love!!!!
My son is begging me to read him another chapter before bed each night, and he pulls out the book at the breakfast table to try to get me to read more. He is SERIOUSLY motiviated to start reading himself so he doesn't depend on Mom!!!
There is also plenty of humor for the Mom or Dad who is reading in there too....

Review: What can I say about Captain Underpants? Well, I know he's faster than a speeding waistband, more powerful than boxer shorts, and, heck, he can even leap tall building without getting a wedgie! And you can see it all (isn't this an exciting review) in these 5 action packed books, full of Action, Thrills, Laffs, More Action, More Laffs, More Flip-O-Rama, Tons-O-Fun, Lots-O-Laffs, Flip-O-Rama, Romance (just kidding), and terror. Wanna hear more?George and Harold, two elementary school boys, make comics. Naughty comics. Dog Man, Timmy the Talking Toilet, The Amazing Cow Lady, and everybodys favorite, the amazing Captain Underpants. They spend hours and hours writing Captain Underpants comics, and sell them at school. I'm not going to tell all the details because it'll ruin the book, but they eventually turn their evil principal-Mr. Krupp-into Captain Underpants! Well, at least he thinks he's Captain Underpants. He goes out to save the day and gets into a mess of trouble, but it all ends well, or so George and Harold think, for what they don't know is that every time someone snaps their fingers, Mr. Krupp turns into none other than Captain Underpants! They find this out in book two, when the boys place a picture of an army of evil talking toilets into a photo scanner that make anything you put in it real! Uh oh! But how did the invasion of the incredibly naughty cafeteria ladies from outer space (and the subsequent assault of the equally evil lunchroom zombie nerds come about? Well, duh! Space alien lunch ladies who replace the original lucnch ladies who quit due to the offense taken from an insulting comic book from Georg & Harold. But that's not all the problems they have. They've yet to face the perilous plot of Professor Poopypants (actually Professor Pippy Pee Poopypants), in a really cool story in which you can see what your alternate name would be (mine's Zippy Chucklefanny)-and then there's the wrath of the wicked wedgie woman! Will you like these books? YES. Anyone will. I'm sure young kids will, and I do, and I'm 13, and my Dad likes them, and he's 55! He laughed more than I did! I hope to see more of the legendary CU in the future...it's a dangerous world out there without 'em! Now, do me a favor and click the "Helpful" button...

Summary: If a 14 year old loves it, I'm sure your son will.
Review: Yesterday I went searching through my closet when I came across this treasure; CAPTAIN UNDERPANTS! I remember getting the set from my aunt for x-mas when I was about 10 or 11. I never liked reading then, so I threw them in my closet. Now older, I appreciate reading more, especially comics and mangas. So I decided to give the man in his underwear a shot. I was quite surprised at how interesting the books really are. They are funny, but are also not too violent or vulgar. The jokes would probably make a young boy laugh all day long. The books are also easy to read, which kind of bored me, but would be good for younger kids. It took me a good 4 hours to read all five books. All five books contain about 646 pages of reading and extra "Flip-O-Rama". I recommend.
