The Adventures Of Super Diaper Baby - Captain Underpants Author:George Beard, Harold Hutchins Oh, no! It's not enough that George and Harold have invented Captain Underpants, the greatest superhero of all time, and that they've also saved the world FIVE times! They defeated Dr. Diaper! They punished Professor Poopypants! And they whacked the wicked Wedgie Woman! What task could be worse?!!?

So what do they do? Aha! Meet Super Diaper Baby--the most powerful peewee to pack a punch. With Pilkey's typical over-the-edge humor, Super Diaper Baby will have kids laughing until soda comes out their noses.« less
What a wonderful, silly book! Dave Pilkey is an inspirational children's author, who struggled in school, spending a great deal of time in the hallway for disrupting his class. He never received any encouragement until he went to college and wrote his first book.
Super Diaper Baby is in comic book style with some great 'flip-o-matic" pages, that you flip quickly and get that live action cartoon effect. The story is very amusing, with some hitting (newborn hits doctor back after being given the slap of life!) and an e-vil arch rival, who turns himself into, well, into something found in a baby's dirty diaper, so consider yourself warned! (The kids will love it....)
My son loves these books, and I have an eternal debt of gratitude to Dav Pilkey for the incredible vitality of his concepts and their appeal to tentative new readers. This book is probably the most disgusting of the entire series, and possibly the only one I regret getting. If you do not want your second-grade boy to draw a picture of a villain who has been turned into a turd, do not get this one. If you need a secret weapon to get your reluctant child reading, this series, including this and Ook and Gluk, the two comic books Pilkey created in the voices of his child characters, may be it.
This is a comic book type book (which I knew) It is worse than Captian Underpants, it teaches disobiedience, how to mispell words and use bad hand writeing. It is too gross for young children who need no help being gross, as little kids even with the best intentions are aften grossing out adults, how be it completely unintentional, I do not feel it should be promoted.
Currently 5/5 Stars.
