funny but weird.
This book is kind a crazy yet fun at the same time! George an Harold are blackmailed into doing stuff for their principal, and then, they buy a Hypnotizing ring. They hypnotize him to act like capatain Underpants, and then they go fight crime. They pour water on his head, it turns him back. However, if somebody sanps their fingers, Mr. Krupp will turn once again to------ Captain Underpants! This was quite funny ansd I really enjoyed it!!!!!
This is a story about two fourth grade boys,George Beard and Harold Hutchins, and they are best friends. They were mischevious, and often changed billboards to something inappropriate. They always wrote comics at home, printed them at school, and then sold it to the school kids for 50 cents each. But their principal, Mr Krupp, HATED those comics. He was a mean principal, and always made kids sad, so he made the two boys get in trouble, blackmails them, and forces them to do brutal labor. BUT, George buys a Hypo ring, and turns Mr. Krupp into Captain UNDERPANTS!!!
This book is so funny. i own it and reread it ALL the time. This story is perfect for all ages.
This book was ok. It was about two kids, George and Harold who have a HORRIBLE principle. They make comics about a super hero named Captain Underpants. Mr. Krupp, their principle just despises them and tries to get them in trouble whenever possible. George and Harold have escaped every close call so far-- but now, after messing with a football game, Mr. Krupp has gotten George and Harold on video! In exchange for not giving the players the video, George and Harold work for Mr. Krupp all day everyday. Until, George gets a hypnotizing ring and makes Mr. Krupp give them the video. All would be well, except they also make him believe he's Captain Underpants! He goes totally bonkers, and then jumps out the window and runs into trouble. The trio comes across a short man trying to destruct the world. Can they stop this mysterious man? Read to find out.
My brother loves this book. He just cannot get enough of the hilarious characters. I read some of these books as well. They were so funny. Do NOT read this book if you are expecting a serious read.
In this fulfilled adventurous book, you'll keep asking for more! I should know because I've read 4 of them just last week, and I'm in 5th Grade, so its really good.
