Editorial Review:
"Faster than a speeding waistband... more powerful than boxer shorts..." It's Captain Underpants! Young readers will devour this fancy new boxed set of the first five paperbacks in the side-splitting, potty-humored (literally) Captain Underpants series. These books are award-winning--but really, who cares about awards when you're reading about talking toilets and the perilous plot of Professor Poopypants? The "epic" collection includes The Adventures of Captain Underpants, Captain Underpants and the Attack of the Talking Toilets, Captain Underpants and the Invasion of the Incredibly Naughty Cafeteria Ladies from Outer Space, Captain Underpants and the Perilous Plot of Professor Poopypants, and Captain Underpants and the Wrath of the Wicked Wedgie Woman. (Ages 5 to 12)
Tra-La-Laaaaa! Join George and Harold on FIVE hilarious adventures with the amazing Captain Underpants, as they duel Dr. Diaper, tackle the talking toilets, clash with the crazy cafeteria ladies, plot against Professor Poopypants, and wrestle the wicked Wedgie Woman. Overflowing with humor, action, and that world-famous cheesy animation technique, Flip-O-Rama, this boxed collection will make kids laugh until soda comes out their noses. Have you read your UNDERPANTS today?

Average Rating: 
Rating:  - Not that great
After two or three of these books, the plot becomes dull and loses its humor. Also, I would not recommend these for children learning to read and write as they are filled with misspellings (picher for picture and shurely for surely). I don't quite get why this is supposed to be funny, but it's confusing and ultimately detrimental for my 8 year old.
Finally, parents take note: Pilkey has created a lucrative business based on potty humor and his inability to draw above a 3rd grade ... Read More
Rating:  - Christopher Chase's Favorite Book
This book is outstanding! It is the best book I have ever read. I like it because it is gross and very funny! I give it five stars.
Rating: - My son can't stop reading these
For an elementary-school-aged child, these books are great. My son needs no prompting to read them.
There's a bit of 'potty talk' in there, but I find them hilarious!
Some of the best books for this age that I've seen.
Rating:  - My son is all over them
My son is devouring them and, in doing so, is pushing himself to read more.
The cartoon sections are deliberately laden with grammatical errors - they are supposed to be written by our two mischievous schoolboy heros - and the humor, while genuinely funny, is puerile. But hey! It's targeted at little boys. What do you expect?
Very worthwhile purchase.
Rating: - Great buy!
My 8 year old son loves these books! We read them together at night and he is in stitches. Some may wonder if the books are a bit inappropriate, but it's all in good fun. Children know George and Harold's antics are not realistic, yet they can enjoy fantasizing about such craziness at school.
