5.0 out of 5 stars Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets, February 14, 2000

By 

Dee (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets (Paperback)

I read some of the other reviews and one stated that this was not a book for adults - true, it's not one I would have purchased solely for my own enjoyment - but enjoy it I did. My 7 year old son and I bought the book at the book fair and this is our second go round with it as a bed time book. We enjoy it as much or more each time we read it together. My 4 year old daughter can't wait to get her own Capt Underpants book. Thank you Mr. Pilkey for a book the whole family can read together - I am waiting impatiently for the next Capt Underpants adventure, I may even let the kids read it when I'm done...stay tuned................

5.0 out of 5 stars Funnyfunnyfunny, March 30, 2000

By A Customer

This review is from: Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets (Paperback)

My 7-year-old son and I read this together and laughed all the way through. Dav Pilkey uses his goofy imagination to write a very entertaining book for all ages. The best part is when the boys rearrange the letters on the sign to say something utterly silly (they do this in every book). George and Harold's ideas seem fairly innocent at first but cause dilemmas that even Captain Underpants can't resolve. Instead of panicking, George and Harold come up with zany ideas that actually work and save the day, plus more! This book will get any reluctant reader begging for the next Captain Underpants adventure. Keep 'em coming, Dav!

5.0 out of 5 stars I thought the book was excellent, October 29, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets (Paperback)

I like the book because it was very funny and full of action. I think that it's a really good book for kids so they can laugh. The funniest part for me was when a toilet ate Captain Underpants and the kids made a new drawing so they could help Captain Underpants. But I really recommend this book to kids who like to laugh a lot.
