Anyone can hardly come over the mania created by this book.
2. Captain Underpants and the attack of the Talking Toilets
Preceded by the adventures of Captain Underpants, this book matched the mania created by its earlier version. George and Harold dreamed to become the principals of their school by winning the Invention Convention of their school. Blacklisted from participating, they decide to sabotage the inventions of other participants. By doing this their principal orders them to be in detention room and avoid any further mischief. Accidently, they make Talking Toilets alive; this resulted into great havoc where all teachers got eaten away by talking toilets. As expected George and Harold come to everyone’s rescue while being a reason for such occurrence.

In the meanwhile, three extraterrestrials land on the school’s roof to manifest their evil intentions of taking over the earth by turning everyone into giant monsters. They disguise themselves as human and start working as those cafeteria ladies. Captain Underpants’ jumps into the occasion when slowly people turn into zombies and monsters. After a fierce battle with those extraterrestrials they somehow manage to turn those zombies back into students and teachers. Dav Pilkey Books are full of excitement and for kids no other replacement can bring in such joy and thrill. Mr. Krupp continues to be in driving seat since he gained control over the things running out of control.
4. Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants
Fourth Dav Pilkey book in series is a healthy competitor to the legacy created by its precedents. Professor Poopypants receives bad welcome in USA when he receives no interest for his magnificent invention that claimed to increase food supplies and minimize garbage. He joins Harold and George’s school to teach them science but instead got mimicked by them for his name. He turns vindictive and modifies his machine into a giant one and holds his school hostage while forcing everyone to change their names into comic ones. Professor Poopypants gets defeated ultimately and affected ones’ names return to normal ones. Harold and George have no change in their silly behavior despite burning their fingers multiple times.
5. Captain Underpants and the Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman
Fifth novel of the most acceptable Captain Underpants series is much adventurous and turns Ms.Ribble into a Wedgie Woman in her thoughts only. Trouble starts when George and Harold spoil Ms. Ribble’s retirement party. 3-D Hypno ring caused reverse effect on Ms.Ribble and she fascinated herself a wicked wedgie woman who is desirous to wreak havoc on mischievous people. I wish if I could turn back to a kid and enjoy all books of Dav Pilkey that is a nice and warm bag and baggage for every kid.
