Product description

George and Harold are having a normal kind of week. Yesterday they found out they were going to flunk fourth grade. Today they’ve created an evil, super-powerful monster. She’s mean. She’s got a fake-fur Evil Baddie costume – and she’s having a REALLY bad hair day. Even worse, she’s armed with Spray Starch, the only weapon that can stop Captain Underpants in his fight for Truth, Justice and all that is Pre-Shrunk and Cottony! With the help of her robots, the Wicked Wedgie Woman is on a mission to take over the world… and she’ll give a whopping wedgie to anyone who stands in her way! Watch out!

When Dav Pilkey was a kid, he was diagnosed with ADHD and dyslexia. Dav was so disruptive in class that his teachers made him sit out in the hallway every day. Luckily, Dav loved to draw and make up stories. He spent his time in the hallway creating his own original comic books – the very first adventures of Dog Man and Captain Underpants.

In college, Dav met a teacher who encouraged him to illustrate and write. He won a national competition in 1986 and the prize was the publication of his first book, World War Won. He made many other books before being awarded the 1998 California Young Reader Medal for Dog Breath, which was published in 1994, and in 1997 he won the Caldecott Honor for The Paperboy.

The Adventures of Super Diaper Baby, published in 2002, was the first complete graphic novel spin-off from the Captain Underpants series and appeared at #6 on the USA Today bestseller list for all books, both adult and children’s, and was also a New York Times bestseller. It was followed by Super Diaper Baby 2: The Invasion of the Potty Snatchers, also a USA Today bestseller. The unconventional style of these graphic novels is intended to encourage uninhibited creativity in kids.

His stories are semi-autobiographical and explore universal themes that celebrate friendship, tolerance, and the triumph of the good-hearted.

Dav loves to kayak in the Pacific Northwest with his wife.
